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.
Please describe as succinctly as possible:
- What happened.
- What you thought should have happened.
- Precisely what you were doing at the time.
Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have.

Dear Bug Team!
I'm frequently seeing problems when using the above sw to generate
latex documents. The problem happens maybe 1 out of 10 times. The
problem is, when starting latex to compile the document (C-c C-c Latex
RET), nothing happens.
Some additional observations:
- The output buffer shows: Running `LaTeX' on .....
No other output appears in the buffer
- Xemacs is using 100% CPU.
- If I try to start another compilaiton with C-c C-c, xemacs notices
another compilation is running and asks me if I want to kill it. If
I answer 'yes' output buffer shows: LaTeX kill at ... but a new
compilation is never started.
Starting another compilation _usually_ succeeds, but I may have to
try several times
- If I try to kill the latex output buffer, C-x k, output buffer shows
LaTeX hangup at ...
- latex.exe appears to be started but not running (i.e, shows in task
list but doesn't use any cpu resources, even if priority is raised)
- Trying to kill -9 latex.exe gives:
$ /usr/bin/kill -9 1252
kill 1252: Operation not permitted
- Trying to kill -f latex.exe succeeds, and output buffer shows:
Latex finished at.....
I'm aware this may be tricky since the error could be in any of
xemacs/cygwin/auctex (note the alpha version) or miktex, but was
hoping that at least someone had seen something similar.
I've also seen other weird things with xemacs which doesn't use
auctex/miktex. Mostly related to xemacs suddenly using 100%
cpu........will invetsigate and return with more info
