By the way, I've never seen this problem on my home machine running:
current as at ctm-src-cur.3049 with xlockmore-4.03 and CPU:

CPU: Pentium (100.23-MHz 586-class CPU)
  Origin = "GenuineIntel"  Id = 0x52c  Stepping=12
  Features=0x1bf<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,MCE,CX8>

(which is actually a P150 on a motherboard that can only do 100 MHz
as I'm strapped for cash and cant afford $120 Australian for a new
motherboard - boo hoo thats what 1 income, a small child and two
housing loans gets you ;)

So I'll update the work machine and tell you all if it solves the
problem.

"If it is true that our Universe has a zero net value for all conserved
quantities, then it may simply be a fluctuation of the vacuum of some
larger space in which our Universe is imbedded. In answer to the
question of why it happened, I offer the modest proposal that our
Universe is simply one of those things which happen from time to time."
