The good news is I could not reproduce it. But when it happens again
I'll know who to notify.

As I recall, the problem would occur in the query analyzer. If there
was highlighted text in the top window, and you highlighted a row in the
results, and then clicked into the upper window while dragging the
mouse, it would freeze the X server. It has happened much much less
often lately, but it did happen just two days ago, and it always
involves a click-drag situation.
