[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello,

     I just upgraded from Emacs 29.3 to Emacs 29.4 about 30 minutes ago
with no changes to my configuration. However, I have found that one of my
most beloved features seems to be broken. I often use `M-x restart-emacs`
to test how different configurations affect my startup time. However, right
now the command just safely shuts down emacs without starting it up again.
Given the simplicity of this situation, I believe this is a new and
original bug and not a user error. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

I cannot reproduce this, the command works for me.  Does this happen
in "emacs -Q"?

No further comments, so I'm closing this bug as unreproducible.
