Dear Bug Team!
My XEmacs has a not-quite-reproducible but regularly occuring (and
very annoying) behavior when saving a file: C-x C-s fails with an
error message "No file on this line" and the file is removed from the
disk. Repeating the command succeeds - the file is created again, but
with default permissions (even if it was executable before). When I
then change the file and try to save, it fails again. One thing I
might be doing before seeing the bug is calling write-file, but I
can't reproduce the problematic behavior just by doing
that. Restarting XEmacs reverts the behavior to normal - until next
time...
Bye
Vasek
