It matters a lot - that is XAS trying to come up and dying.

Is this a Mac?  There is a lot of info on the aips manager FAQ page 
about this.

On the other hand - killing X11 may leave shared memory in use and you 
may have to clear that.   On Linux ipcs will tell you about the shared 
memory.

Rebooting is the easiest way to fix this.
