Subject: 24.3.92; Segfault in mark_object
Date: Sun, 03 Aug 2014 16:03:09 +0100
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
This is a segfault during GC, in mark_object.

1. Start emacs

$ emacs -Q

2. Call some code which kills and creates a frame between 2 and 25 
times.

This segfault is reasonably straightforward to reproduce, I can cause 
the crash within 2 minutes of starting emacs.

On the emacs-24 branch, this seems to occur in mark_object. The issue is 
also found on the trunk branch so I have supplied details of this also, 
however the backtrace is slightly different.

The issue may relate to bugs #15583 and #17168.

Finally, I have a core dumps which I don't mind sharing for both of 
these crashes which are ~350MB each, please ask.

Regards,
Mat
