Subject: Looping in redisplay due to font problem
Date: Thu, 02 Oct 2008 19:47:25 -0400

After the 2008-07-09 change to ftfont.c, Emacs can loop during redisplay
under the following conditions:

xrdb /dev/null
emacs -Q fc-list.list   [fc-list.list is attached]
<PageDown>
<PageDown>
<PageDown>
<PageDown>

Emacs begins looping while in redisplay, while displaying the text
"Corsivo" (the final letter "o" blinks rapidly).

Strangely enough, I can't reproduce this if I substitute C-v for
PageDown (?!??!).  Also, the bug doesn't show up if there is an X
resource Emacs.geometry already defined.

The problem seems to have appeared for the first time during the checkin
listed below.  My tests indicate that the other files involved this
checkin do not affect the problem.

Could you see if you can reproduce this problem, and review the code
changes to see if they may have caused it?  Thanks!
