Re: Latest "review-then-commit" patch, delete-frame crashes

stephen, can you tell me exactly why the patches are failing to apply? line wrapping, space-vs-tab replacement, LF vs. CRLF damage, total randomness, etc.? the first Makefile patch came from patcher and was sent directly by XEmacs itself. the second one with attached files was from Outlook Express. the only common variable is that Norton Anti-Virus has parked itself at the SMTP port and checks outgoing mail for viruses. it would be very strange if it were corrupting mail in the process, but it's possible ... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stephen J.

Now building. By the way, patch failed to apply again. That's three in 24 hours, Ben, is your mailer OK? (The two I saw I also tried against clean checkouts, I don't think it's a problem here, unless Gnus has gone crazy.) Last night it was 3 hunks in src/Makefile.in.in, today it was the near-complete removal of lisp/mule/mule-msw-init.el (thank god for trivial failures). (The third was Ville's report) I'm going to bed---aside from the patch failure, I also had to restart XEmacs a half-dozen times (mostly making the same mistakes repeatedly, tired, tired, hate faculty meetings, hate, hate, hatehatehate...) ups, build finished, success, sending build-report under separate cover. Similar crashes to the ones I saw have been reported, croaking in delete-frame. Mine are closer to those reported by Royer (ie, x_any_window_to_frame is in the backtrace). I wonder if Giacomo Boffi's are different, since they don't make it down to x_any_window_to_frame. My crashes seem to be related to mouse pointer not in frame (quitting ediff, dialogs, and closing using a window manager kill button on frame decoration). The "Missing charsets" message you see is harmless (AFAIK); it's due to a UTF-8 locale that I forgot to suppress. Royer's report: <a href="http://list-archive.xemacs.org/xemacs-beta/200302/msg00226.htm...
