On Emacs checked out now, it is xterm.c:7566, in function
x_catch_errors.


I forgot to mention that this first commenting did not change the behaviour
of the Xaw3d variant of the X client: GNU Emacs still stays invisible and
does not appear, not even after minutes of waiting.


This means we can rule out XSync in the error handler.
As you are the one seeing this, I suggest you try to follw the advice in
etc/DEBUG about debugging infinite loops.

Breakpoint 3, x_connection_closed (dpy=0x3034a00, error_message=0xbfffb258
"X protocol error: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
on protocol request 45") at xterm.c:7689

45 is X_OpenFont.  The font the menu bar tries to open is
-*-helvetica-medium-r-*--*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1

What happens if you do
% xterm -fn '-*-helvetica-medium-r-*--*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1'
or
% xfd -fn '-*-helvetica-medium-r-*--*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1'
?
