Dear Bug Team!
I was editing a Perl file. I clicked on a tab to switch to another
Perl bufer, and XEmacs crashed. I couldn't repeat it. On standard
out, I got
Fatal error: assertion failed, file gui-x.c, line 284, RECORD_TYPEP (obj,
lrecord_type_cons)
Fatal error (6).
Your files have been auto-saved.
Use `M-x recover-session' to recover them.
Your version of XEmacs was distributed with a PROBLEMS file that may describe
your crash, and with luck a workaround. Please check it first, but do report
the crash anyway.
Please report this bug by invoking M-x report-emacs-bug, or by selecting
`Send Bug Report' from the Help menu. If that won't work, send ordinary
email to `crashes(a)xemacs.org'. *MAKE SURE* to include this entire output
from this crash, especially including the Lisp backtrace, as well as the
XEmacs configuration from M-x describe-installation (or equivalently, the
file `Installation' in the top of the build tree).
*Please* try *hard* to obtain a C stack backtrace; without it, we are unlikely
to be able to analyze the problem. Locate the core file produced as a result
of this crash (often called `core' or `core.<process-id>', and located in
the directory in which you started XEmacs or your home directory), and type
gdb /usr/local/bin/xemacs core
then type `where' at the debugger prompt. No GDB on your system? You may
have DBX, or XDB, or SDB. (Ask your system administrator if you need help.)
If no core file was produced, enable them (often with `ulimit -c unlimited')
in case of future recurrance of the crash.
Lisp backtrace follows:
# (unwind-protect ...)
# (unwind-protect ...)
# (unwind-protect ...)
# (unwind-protect ...)
# (unwind-protect ...)
# (unwind-protect ...)
# (unwind-protect ...)
("next_event_internal()" "[internal]")
# (unwind-protect ...)
# bind (inhibit-quit)
(next-event "[internal]")
# (condition-case ... . error)
# (catch top-level ...)
$
I ran gdb as htese instructions recommend, and got
(gdb) where
#0 0xfeb9f890 in _libc_kill () from /usr/lib/libc.so.1
#1 0x9c410 in fatal_error_signal (sig=6) at emacs.c:3440
#2 <signal handler called>
#3 0xfeb9f890 in _libc_kill () from /usr/lib/libc.so.1
#4 0xfeb358bc in abort () from /usr/lib/libc.so.1
#5 0x9c5a4 in zero_out_command_line_status_vars () at emacs.c:4283
(gdb)
Hope this helps.
