Subject: 23.1.50; (make-frame '(visibility)) problem on w32
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2009 21:02:51 +0200

I have previously told about problem with make-frame, but have had a
hard time to narrow down an example. I have seen crashes and strange
behaviour.

The example in the subject lines gives me strange point moving
problems. For example have I seen that when switching back to buffer
*scratch* point moves to 1.

I can't narrow it down right now, but it is very reproducible. I
believe the other problems I have seen also have been associated with
create-frame.

Unfortunately on my patched version. Sorry. (I would be glad to get
rid of my patches.)

So, are you still seeing this bug, and are you able to reproduce it
with stock Emacs?

Sorry, I do not know at the moment. I do not see this in my (old)
patched build and I do not remember the details right now.

At the moment it is unfortunately very hard to compare my code to
standard Emacs code since I have not had time to build at all lately.

I could try with the latest build, but I can't find it now. The
information on EmacsWiki does not seem to be right. Where are the
latest builds now?

You don't know if you see a given bug or not?

The Windows build, do you mean? Sean builds weekly from trunk, and the
binaries are at http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/

Thanks. I added the links to http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CategoryWThirtyTwo

BTW, it would be much easier to find the latest build if ISO time
format was used in the list. Why is not this used?

What do you mean? The date in ISO format is part of the zip's name!
And you can click on the "Last modified" header to sort them by
descending order of modification.

Ah, yes. I was looking at the date column ;-)

And you could sort them. Wow!
