This problem is probably specific to Debian, in which case I plead
guilty for it.  I have just filed two bug reports in the Debian
database: one against gnat-gps[1] and the other against the X
server[2], since "any crash of the X server is a bug in the X server".

[1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=297980
[2] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=297985

Please followup to 297980@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and 297985@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
You may also want to subscribe to the package gnat-gps; for this,
