Thanks for the great work on xemacs! I have hit this bug and hope
that this bug report will be helpful. Again, keep up the great work!
This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team,
not to your local site managers!!
Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
In XEmacs 21.2 "Artemis" [Lucid] (i586-pc-linux) of Sat Jan 2 1999 on
gollum.rmas.com
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
M-x doctor
Recent keystrokes:
C-x b RET C-x 1 button2 button2up button2 button2up

bash$ Fatal error: assertion failed, file bytecode.c, line 532, specpdl_ptr->func == 0
Fatal error (6).
Your files have been auto-saved.
Use `M-x recover-session' to recover them.
Please report this bug by running the send-pr script included
with XEmacs, or selecting `Send Bug Report' from the help menu.
As a last resort send ordinary email to `crashes(a)xemacs.org'.
*MAKE SURE* to include the information in the command
M-x describe-installation.
If at all possible, *please* try to obtain a C stack backtrace;
it will help us immensely in determining what went wrong.
To do this, locate the core file that was produced as a result
of this crash (it's usually called `core' and is located in the
directory in which you started the editor, or maybe in your home
directory), and type
gdb /usr/local/bin/xemacs core
then type `where' when the debugger prompt comes up.
(If you don't have GDB on your system, you might have DBX,
or XDB, or SDB. A similar procedure should work for all of
these. Ask your system administrator if you need more help.)
Lisp backtrace follows:
doctor-make-string(i)
# bind (word)
doctor-type-symbol(i)
mapcar(doctor-type-symbol (i am the psychotherapist \. please\, describe your problems
\. each time you are finished talking\, type RET twice \.))
# bind (ans)
doctor-txtype((i am the psychotherapist \. please\, describe your problems \. each time
you are finished talking\, type RET twice \.))
# bind (x)
