When this happens, type "C-h l" and see if Emacs really got those 'z'
characters in its input. If it did, there's nothing Emacs can do
about it: the OS somehow stuffs those characters into the Emacs input
queue.

Yes, please, we need backtraces from GDB to try to understand what
could cause these crashes.
> I have a couple of backtraces below for the zzzz issue:
Those backtraces just say that Emacs is idle waiting for input. They
give no hint about the problem, which is expected if the problem is
outside of Emacs.
