Emacs -Q
M-x list-faces-display
C-x o
C-x 1
M-: (setq scroll-step 1 scroll-conservatively 1)
(enlarge frame a bit)

Now scroll down (with Down/Home) repeatedly.  In two out of three  
trials this produced the crash below for me.

I can't get this to reproduce when -O2 not given, but the stack trace  
is incomplete when it is.  David, is this crash frequently occurring  
in other contexts, or only through the specific recipe you give?

I've had these crashes a lot when experimenting with many faces being  
displayed - but only then; not really (or rarely) during normal use.   
I've been using -O3.

Unfortunately I couldn't reproduce under gdb the other day.

Is this problem still present in Emacs 24?

I cannot reproduce it with -Os or -O2 or -O3.  I am not sure if the scrolling is working correctly (there are jumps when there don’t need to be) but that would be a different bug report.
