interesting. You got lucky. The GC collected function in
function_argcount but the pointer still pointed to a valid LispObject
(the list in the backtrace). I assume this is _not_ a debug build? In
debug builds we try to make sure that collected objects are really
invalid, to get a crash early on.
I had fixed this by adding a GCPRO (see xemacs-patches) yesterday but
didn't get around to mailing the patch.
thanks for testing.
