bug#3877: 23.1.50; X protocol error: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter) on protocol request 53

[Peter Dyballa]

Hello!

I tried to debug a problem with xkill and opened emacs/src directory  
in dired. Then I clicked with the mouse cursor on emacs-23.1.50.1  
file – GNU Emacs crashed at once with the error message cited in the  
subject.

I can repeat it always. (Before I can debug I need an executable with  
debug information.)

scroll bars)

There's something the technicians need to learn from the artists. If  
it isn't aesthetically pleasing, it's probably wrong.
