Retrieving info from panics while in X

[Jos Backus]

I was wondering if anybody has any plans to address the issue of retrieving
panic/debugging information about crashes happening while X is running.

For example, -current has been broken for me for several days now; it will
reliably crash within an hour or so while the main thing I'm doing is running
Opera under KDE. But without X, no crash. How does one obtain panic
information in this situation?
