a pebcak, still don't know what ximcp.so.2 is for, but I solved my
crashes. Installed a patch for better ttf rendering, removed some libs
of a standard x11 installation and dropped replacements in
/usr/local/lib.

Got an update for x11, this reinstalled the missing libs, and I forgot
to manually update my libs in /usr/local/lib.

Didn't replace ximcp.so.2, took some time to recognize these not
obvious (for me) connection.
