If I start scite on a remote machine via ssh w/ X forwarding, it dies as soon as I click on any menu. This happens with 1.6.1 and 1.6.2. I haven't tried with 1.6.3 yet but will soon. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: [proton][04:39:05 PM] ssh nucleus -l root -X ... [nucleus][04:38:31 PM] scite secs.scm & [1] 10624 The scite window appears on my X server. Now I try to select any menu item, and: The program 'scite' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 2050 error_code 3 request_code 38 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
