What system? What version of X? What version of XForms?

This is clearly a server bug, since no application should *ever* crash
the X server (or the operating system), no matter how broken the
application might be. If there is a newer version of the server, you
might want to consider upgrading.

Since doublebuffering is accomplished by drawing to an offscreen
Pixmap and then copying the whole mess to the Window containing the
form you might want to look for server problems involving Pixmaps
and/or XCopyArea().
