Subject: bug#3943: 23.0.96; CPerl-mode is too electric
Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2009 15:24:39 +0200

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org mailing
list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

In CPerl-Mode the '<' inside a while statement completes not only to
'<>' which is fine, but adds another set of brackets, so that you end up
with
--- example start
while (<>) {
} ( ) {
}
--- example end
instead of the reasonble
--- example start
while (<>) {

}
--- example end
what was the result in former versions.

To duplicate this I started emacs with '-Q' and loaded a file containing
-- start of file
(autoload 'cperl-mode  "cperl-mode" t t)
(setq cperl-hairy t)            ; Alle Features on
(setq cperl-indent-level 4)
(setq cperl-auto-newline t)     ; Einrueckung und Leerzeile bei ';' usw.
(setq auto-mode-alist
      (append '(("\\.\\([pP][Llm]\\|al\\)$" . cperl-mode))
auto-mode-alist ))
-- end of file
the CPerl configuration I have used for a few years

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
d:/bin/emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
