I started getting the "Args out of range" messages in the *Messages* buffer
after I built emacs using the latest master today. My previous build was
about a week back.
Only after this build, I started getting "Args out of range" every time I
use something like "C-h v" that uses the popwin-mode (
https://github.com/m2ym/popwin-el ).
I don't get these Args out of range messages if I do not load popwin; but
also these messages did not appear a week ago with popwin enabled.
I did not get any informative backtrace with
M-x debug-on-error
or
(setq debug-on-message "Args out of range")
Is this a bug or some change incompatible with popwin-mode?

This seems to be an error related to a third party package, and there
have been no further update in 4 years. I'm therefore closing this
bug. If this is indeed a bug in Emacs, please ropen.
