[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I was tinkering with my .emacs file, trying to use different use-package
idioms, when I noticed that Emacs segfaults when I attempt to compile my
.emacs, when ack-and-a-half is not installed.

First, the debugger is raised, then Emacs crashes when I try to kill the
debugger buffer.

Config:

To make progress, you'll have to run Emacs under a debugger (see
etc/DEBUG) and post the backtrace. It will help to compile without
optimization.

It's been a year with no further information, so I'm closing this.
