Subject: 24.5; Crash after eval a form
Date: Fri, 04 May 2018 16:51:56 +0900

emacs -Q
;; Emacs crash after evaluate the following form:
(let* ((lst (list 'x))
       (form (cons 'die
                   (list 'w '(pop lst)))))
  (while lst
    (setq form
          (cons 'die
                (cons form
                      (list '(pop lst))))))
  form)

;; Same behavior in Emacs 25, 26 and master.
;; The crash seems to happen because of the following assert (lisp.h:1468) fails:
INLINE ptrdiff_t
SCHARS (Lisp_Object string)
{
  ptrdiff_t nchars = XSTRING (string)->u.s.size;
  eassume (0 <= nchars);
  return nchars;
}
