A little more info: gdb says:
Fatal error: assertion failed, file /apps/public/XEmacs/src/xemacs-21.5.6/src/alloc.c,
line 1861, i == (Bytecount) XSTRING_ASCII_BEGIN (str) || (i > MAX_STRING_ASCII_BEGIN
&& (Bytecount) XSTRING_ASCII_BEGIN (str) == (Bytecount) MAX_STRING_ASCII_BEGIN)
But the backtrace ends on zero_out_command_line_status_vars. I guess
the bug is trashing the stack as well.
