[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello,

I'm using GNU Emacs 25.1.50.1 on Mac OS X 10.11. I've been able to
reproduce this hang a couple times, the gist of it is:

1. Open a specific markdown document (using markdown-mode, from MELPA).
2. Make a specific change to this document (deleting one line)
3. Emacs hangs

I attached lldb (sorry Richard :-)) to it and discovered a stack trace 4000
frames deep, almost all of which were in functions named things like
"mark_vector" and "mark_object". I've attached the stack trace to this
email. A few choice lines:

Unfortunately, I'm probably not allowed to attach the markdown document to
this email. I'm perfectly happy to enable any kind of diagnostics which may
help in debugging this and attach them to this bug. I'll also install a
newer pretest version and see if I can reproduce the bug there.

Thanks,

Tom Jakubowski

Thanks for reporting back.  I'm closing the bug now then.
