Emacs freezing when clicking on the menu bar.

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • Clicking on the menu bar to the right of the Help entry freezes the emacs edit window. The cursor doesn't move and text can't be entered.
  • Resizing the window re-sizes the frame but the contents don't resize. The edit window can be brought back to life by opening and closing a menu.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.7
  • emacs-23.1-28.el6.x86_64.rpm
