The crash happened again.  It was in this line of find_newline

            ceiling_byte = min (CHAR_TO_BYTE (next_change) - 1, ceiling_byte);

and next_change was larger than BUF_Z.  This was in buffer
` *message-viewer RMAIL*'.

Sounds like a recently fixed issue

http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=15898

so try updating.

Until you update from the repository, this should help:

Thanks to you and everyone who told me this has been fixed.
I updated yesterday, in case it would fix this.
Now I am using the newer version.
