"vm not working well with emacs 22" might be a vm issue.

However, if whatever command in vm or elsewhere makes your emacs
hang indefinitely or crash ("segmentation fault") this is really an
emacs issue. Then you should try to find out what causes this / when
this happens and report it to the emacs maintainers using M-x
report-emacs-bug.

For them it is most important they get enough information they can
reproduce the bug, see the node "Reporting Bugs" in the emacs info
manual.
