Andy:
this backtrace shows that problem is in GetKeyboardEvents, part of the 
DIX's input handling (xserver/dix/getevents.c). Can you please file a 
bug and attach your log, the backtrace and your config file.

Also, if you have a second machine it would be really useful if you 
could ssh into and run X under gdb. This should give you a more useful 
backtrace, including the command that segfaults the server.

Cheers,
   Peter
