Test case: the following code snippet works fine on xemacs-21.4, xemacs-21.5-5 and GNU Emacs 21.2, all on Windows 2000 box. BUT in recent xemacs-21.5 from CVS it the second (error ...) clause fires an error -- the newly created window dies during (set-window-configuration ...) Nickolay. (let ((nw (split-window))) ; (save-window-excursion ; (select-window nw)) (let ((wc (current-window-configuration))) (unwind-protect (prog1 (select-window nw) (unless (window-live-p nw) (error 'error '(1)))) (set-window-configuration wc))) (unless (window-live-p nw) (error 'error '(2))) ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OS version: Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195] OS: Windows_NT XEmacs 21.5-b5 \"beets\" configured for `i586-pc-win32'.
