Don't worry, it was only a rhetoric question.

The attached is an attempt to catch the condition where the selected
window's buffer is dead in a couple of strategic places.  Please run
with it in an unoptimized Emacs and wait till an assertion triggers.
Yet another shot in the dark but I have no better idea.

And if you still have the old session in the debugger, please tell us
what the value of old_selected_window is.

Thanks, martin
