I've been having this problem for a number of months too.
I just installed the font-isas-misc, font-jis-misc and font-daewoo-misc
packages to get around some "missing charsets in string to fontset conversion"
warnings and so far I haven't had 1 crash. Also xterm seems to come up much
more quickly.
A few other things were updated when I put the fonts in so not positive it was
the fonts that fixed the issue.
