I'm using xorg-edgers PPA and recently on Ubuntu 13.10 and while I edit in GVim 7.4.131 the Xorg Server is crashing and I go to Logon screen. I've noticed this is happening when I'm in Vim Insert mode and I click CAPS-LOCK which here is mapped to ESC key. Just upon releasing it crashes all the time. Console Vim doesn't suffer from same problem.
I'm with latest PPA updates
Sorry, better description is that I'm coding some C file, and the crash happens after I enter the ; character, and then, go to normal mode with ESC.
Better description, the plugin https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe must also be installed... I've noticed that disabling this plugin Xorg doesn't crash. With that plugin, editing a C file, declaring a variable, pressing ; and then ESC twice ocasionates the crash.
Please attach the Xorg.0.log file and, if possible, a gdb backtrace corresponding to the crash.
Created attachment 95684 [details] Link to crash and log files
There's no symbolic stackdump, so please try: addr2line -i -e /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/intel_drv.so 0xcbfb6 but it looks just like irregular memory corruption.
commit 5d8ded0dd671fbcbd212e06afbea88a7a56a8f0d Author: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Date: Thu Mar 13 08:51:29 2014 +0000 sna: Nullify extra fill.ops I forgot that the initial memset(&fill, 0, sizeof(fill)) was no longer performed and we rely on explicit initialisation during the setup, so add the missing fields.

Thank you, PPA was updated today and GVim stopped crashing the machine.
