... and a third time, from a different account.
The only reason I can see why the previous two attempts failed would
be that there's binary byte-code in the traceback. I stripped it and
replaced it with "..." this time, to see if that would work.
Apologies if this has actually turned up 3 times, but it's *definitely*
not in the xemacs-beta archives.
Paul.

Subject: Crash with "Page Setup" menu item
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!
When I select the "Page Setup" menu from XEmacs, I get a crash
(assertion failure). This is on both Windows 2000 and XP, with release
and debug builds of XEmacs 21.5.11.
The error details produced are shown below.
Apologies if this has been sent twice - I never saw any sign of the
first copy I sent, so I'm reposting...

Fatal error: assertion failed, file c:\data\xemacs\xemacs-21.5.11\src\console.c, line 253,
abort()
Fatal error.
Your files have been auto-saved.
Use `M-x recover-session' to recover them.
Your version of XEmacs was distributed with a PROBLEMS file that may describe
your crash, and with luck a workaround. Please check it first, but do report
the crash anyway.
Please report this bug by invoking M-x report-emacs-bug, or by selecting
`Send Bug Report' from the Help menu. If that won't work, send ordinary
email to `crashes(a)xemacs.org'. *MAKE SURE* to include this entire output
from this crash, especially including the Lisp backtrace, as well as the
XEmacs configuration from M-x describe-installation (or equivalently, the
file `Installation' in the top of the build tree).
If you are fortunate enough to have some sort of debugging aid installed
on your system, for example Visual C++, and you can get a C stack backtrace,
*please* include it, as it will make our life far easier.
Lisp backtrace follows:
# (unwind-protect ...)
