From: Eli Zaretskii <eliz <at> gnu.org>
To: emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org
Subject: 23.0.60; C-x RET c FOO C-x C-g signals an error
Date: Sun, 19 Oct 2008 17:12:33 +0200

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 emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org mailing list.

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

  emacs -Q
  C-x RET c utf-8 RET C-x C-g

produces an unexpected error message:

  Wrong type argument: commandp, nil

(What happened here is that I changed my mind after typing the second
C-x and wanted to bail out.  I expected to see "Quit", not an error.)

The problem happens no matter what coding-system you use instead of
utf-8.


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
d:/gnu/emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
