Description mmonaco27 2009-10-31 14:39:07 UTC 
This doesn't happen every time for me, but to reproduce:

1) Open gnome-terminal
2) Maximize terminal
3) Open another window (like firefox or gedit)
4) Maximize it
5) close the new window by pressing the 'x'
6) the terminal will close unexpectedly

I do not know if this is a more general bug with metacity or something like that, or what really triggers it, however the only thing I've noticed  this with is gnome-terminal. I've noticed it with firefox, thunderbird, and gedit on top.

I'm running on Arch linux.

Not reproducible here.

Anyway, the X button is handled by the window manager; -> metacity

Please also specify the exact version number of gnome-terminal and metacity.
