This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!! Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have translators to read other languages for them. Please describe as succinctly as possible: - What happened. - What you thought should have happened. - Precisely what you were doing at the time. Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have. ================================================================ Dear Bug Team!

This has been happening for a while in cygwin-based XEmacs versions. My linux version does not seem to have this problem. I built a copy so that I could run it in the debugger and it appears that the stack is getting corrupted somewhere along the way. For the VM mailbox crash, the arguments to looking_at_1 appear to be correct, but the arguments to re_match_2 seem a bit weird: looking_at_1(regexp = 270034580, decode_buffer(buffer = 548864, 0) = 0x103eaa00, 0) re_match_2(bufp = 0x86000, string1 = "" (0x86000), size1 = 548864, string2 = "" (0x86000), size2 = 548864, pos = 4, regs = 0x86000, stop = 548864) Note that 0x86000 == 548864. I would be happy to provide more information if someone would like get to the bottom of this. For me it's a pretty important bug to fix. :-) Thanks, Ian Flanigan ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: CYGWIN_NT-5.0 TSUNAMI 1.3.12(0.54/3/2) 2002-07-06 02:16 i686 unknown ./configure '--with-dragndrop' '--with-postgresql=no' '--with-x=no' '--bindir=/usr/local/bin/i686-pc-cygwin' '--with-site-lisp=yes' '--with-ipv6-cname=no' '--with-netinstall' XEmacs 21.4.10 "Military Intelligence (RC2 Windows)" configured for `i686-pc-cygwin'.
