582Unfortunately, this is unavoidable, as the \s-1XIM\s0 protocol is racy by
583design. Applications can avoid some crashes at the expense of memory
584leaks, and Input Methods can avoid some crashes by careful ordering at
585exit time. \fBkinput2\fR (and derived input methods) generally succeeds,
586while \fB\s-1SCIM\s0\fR (or similar input methods) fails. In the end, however,
587crashes cannot be completely avoided even if both sides cooperate.
