    This is a known bug with gucharmap. It is not an AbiWord bug.

    Abiword freezes if I try "Insert Symbol"
    http://bugzilla.abisource.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6124
    Insert => Symbol freezes X-session in gtk-Abiword with gucharmap support
    http://bugzilla.abisource.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6095

    Both 6124 and 6095 are duplicates of 5555 "embedded gucharmap freezes"
    http://bugzilla.abisource.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5555

    Advice from bug 5555 on how to fix this:
    "just use a newish gucharmap. configure --disable-gucharmap if it bothers
    you that much."

    Cheers - Stephen.
