Subject: bug#64439: 28.2; auto-fill-mode gets turned on all over the place
Date: Mon, 03 Jul 2023 16:55:05 +0100

Hi,

I'm seeing an issue in which auto-fill-mode gets turned on for all the buffers
in a running emacs instance, including the command entry window (M-x, grep,
compile, etc.).  This is a problem as it starts mangling the code I'm working
on and making it harder to enter long commands (such as grep or compile
commands).  I can turn it off manually on most buffers (though not the command
window), but it immediately turns back on in a buffer if I have to reload it.

The problem has happened in several emacs instances now.  It shows up in the
instances I've been using to edit C code and view patches.  It takes a little
while for the problem to manifest when it does.  I'm not sure what triggers
it.

It doesn't, however, happen in the emacs instances I've been using to read my
mail with MH and edit occasional text files on the same system.

In both cases, the emacs instances are typically running for multiple weeks
till I need to reboot - or the issue becomes sufficiently irritating that I
restart emacs.

Thanks,
David
