This X crash is due to error messages being printed to the log file
after the log file has been closed. This was being done in the signal
handler due to a Ubuntu patch. I've corrected the patch to not print
these errors, which should eliminate this crash.

However, still whatever problem had caused the X error to begin with is
still there, and it is likely that X will still be failing, just without
crashing (or perhaps with a different kind of crash). This crash is
hiding that information however. So the good news is hopefully this will
unhide that information. After updating to version 2:1.7.3.902-1ubuntu7
please re-test your original issue; if it still occurs file a new bug.
Hopefully apport will provide better information in this case now.
