>>> That is the fix.  Sending SIGIO manually is pointless.  I can not reproduce the error anymore, so make sure you did make install, and give the exact steps you did to encounter the bug, starting from -Q.

>> Interestingly this opens ~/.emacs.d/abbref_defs which had an error on my machine.  Is this expected with -Q?  Anyway, it's probably not relevant to the discussion at hand since I see the same behaviour if I move .emacs.d entirely.

>> Then I run `menu-set-font', either from the menu or with C-x C-e.  I can change the font and the size freely.  Then I click in the "Size" text box.  A few times this hasn't caused problems, but usually it causes Emacs to stop responding.  The font panel still responds, but nothing changes in terms of the font displayed and it doesn't register typing etc.  FWIW, I added a printf to hold_event and it gets called 3 times when I click on anything other than the text box, but only twice when I click on the text box.
