I reported a similar issue several months ago... I was seeing X crash via xterm -title `perl -e 'print "A" x 9000'` and also with html web pages with long title tags... Heres some strace snippits. I am on a ppc linux box Mandrake 8.0

Same for stock SuSE 7.3 and kernel 2.4.16. The xterm window will show up, but after a few seconds, the X crashes completely.
