Oops, I forgot to report back.

The re-install seems to have solved the problem, or at least reduced the
occurrence rate so that I can't tell there is a problem.

It could be I was making a shortcut while doing some other activity.  That
feels right - I may have been working too fast for the program and it would
stumble.  I will know to think about that if it happens again.

AFAIK the uninstall does not remove $(HOME)/.dia. So if the issue at hand would be \
related to some saved state of Dia reinstallation wont fix it.<br> <br>
But the basic question is: what did change recently now producing the lock up. If you \
only recently switched to Dia 0.97.2 the culprit might be the GTK+ update (2.24.10) \
in the installer. For Dia 0.97.1 installer used 2.18.5. Of course this is just \
speculation, at least I can not reproduce any lock up.<br>
