Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the [email-masked] mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

1. Type the characters "lowercase" followed by return.
2. Press Caps Lock
3. Type the characters "uppercase"

None of the characters will be in uppercase. All other Windows
applications deal with Caps Lock correctly.

Similar to the issue described in <http://groups.google.com/group/gnu.emacs.help/browse_thread/thread/ec345c61bc963d8> but no solution was supplied there.

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
c:/Program Files/GNU Emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
