hi all, when I compile emacs with -g only, it crash as soon as I try
to use it to read my mail using vm. this is using most recent trunk
version on mac os x. attached is the debugger output. this depends
on my mail files and .emacs, so I cannot provide a simple example, but
can easily reproduce this crash myself as needed and run tests given
specific instructions. I still get quite a few crashes with vm+trunk
version, so I am hoping that fixing this one will eliminate at least
some of them. thanks for any help. E
