Emacs23 "freeze" on some conditions.

Binary package hint: emacs23

Emacs23 freezes on some conditions. To "unfreeze" it I need to mouse click
on some item on menubar. The following procedure seems to show the bug:

- Open Emacs23
- Open some text files (the bug showed when I was editing some C source
code files).
- Open a terminal.
- Login as root (sudo su -).
- Exit the root account.
- Change with the mouse to Emacs23.

On my system the keyboard gets irresponsive, Ctrl-g does not work, and the
keyboard causes no response. Even the cursor does not blink.

If you go with the mouse pointer to a menu, and click to open it, Emacs begin
to respond again.

I think it is some weird interaction between GTK and Gnome. But as I never
programmed hard any of this I really don't know.

Thanks in advance.

Ric.
