Description of problem: xscreensaver has started crashing a few days ago

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xscreensaver-5.03-10.fc7.src.rpm

How reproducible: sometimes

Steps to Reproduce: 1. lock screen 2. leave computer 3. come back and wiggle mouse if screen dark Actual results: screen unlocked without entering password

Expected results: screen remains locked until I enter my password

Additional info: output of "xscreensaver -sync -verbose -no-capture" will be attached. stupidly enough I forgot to up the ulimit -c from 0. it's running in sync and verbose mode again after "ulimit -c 2048". Will update this BZ if it craps out again.
