Thanks for the testing, and thanks for taking the trouble to report the
bug in the first place.

I've committed the patch to the master branch, and it will definitely be
in Emacs 29.  :-)

I'm closing the bug with this post.

gunzip this file (it's a c header file base64 encoded from 
googlesource.com) to Looper.h and load it with 28.2 emacs -Q and it'll 
infinite loop pegging one core.

Expected behavior:  load the file, and let me base64-decode it.

It's a long line, but not _that_ long.

If you don't want my gz file, this url will get you the same file:
