I have backported the trunk fix to the emacs-23 brach (there seems to be
no safer complete solutions).  Closing Bug#8219 and Bug#1242.

Subject: 23.0.60; aborted soon after I cloned a buffer

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

        I was editing a file, and hit C-x 4 c to clone the buffer -- I
        then narrowed one window to one region, and narrowed the other
        window (in the cloned buffer) to some other region.  (I do this
        occasionally because I want to focus on _two_ separate pieces of
        the file at once, while ignoring everything else.)  I did some
        editing -- can't remember what, unfortunately -- for a few
        minutes, and suddenly emacs broke into the debugger:
