Summary: textIndex-5.2 hangs/hoses X on Linux/Alp

Initial Comment:

Don't know what recent changes have been made here,
but the test textIndex-5.2 pretty reliably does bad things
to my XFree86-3.3.6-20 on Red Hat Linux 6.2 on Alpha.

During a full `make test` it just hangs on that test with X
consuming all CPU.  (AARRRRGGGHHH. just re-ran to
verify, and no hang, so this isn't 100% repeatable.)

If I limit the testing to the textIndex.test file (with
-file option
in TESTFLAGS) then the test just take uncomfortably long
(a few seconds, while all others zip by in fractions of
a second)
and then sometimes (unreliably) I later have trouble with X
closing and restarting when I log out/into another session.

This is the first time I've noticed this trouble, have
there been
changes in this area recently?

I suspect this may be related to the recent fixes in char 
handling for non-latin1 chars.
