Summary: iemgui empty vertical offset crashes X on Linux

Initial Comment:
Steps to crash X windowing system on Linux using Pd:

1. Start X
2. Start Pd
3. Create a new patch
4. Create a new vslider in that patch
5. Open the properties window for that vslider
6. Set the label to x, and delete all text in the y-off field
7. to cause X to crash, click apply

at this point X starts to use 100% CPU and its memory usage shoots up, making the whole machine largely unresponsive and requiring X to be aborted with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace


Pd version 0.39-2
tcl 8.4.9
tk 8.4.9
X.org version 6.8.2
Kernel version 2.6.14-gentoo-r5
ATI proprietary video drivers
