>> Emacs hangs with a yellow triangle in the middle of the frame
>> (indicating ding) but C-g and C-] do not interrupt.
>> CPU usage is at 90%.

> code, which causes an infinite loop of signaling an error, then
> redisplaying, then signaling an error again, and so on and so forth.
> Still, a C-level backtrace might show which Lisp code runs and what C
> call chain is involved.  So it's useful information, if you can
> provide it.
