This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org.  Please check that
the From: line contains a valid email address.  After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgement at that address.

Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':

 emacs -Q
 C-x C-f guile-2.0.3.tar.gz RET

Instead of the tarball contents, you will be presented with the
literal binary contents of the archive, and the mode line indicates
that Emacs thinks it's a shell script ("Shell-script[sh]").

The same happens if you gunzip the compressed tarball and visit the
resulting tar file.

I tried with a couple of other tarballs, and they work as expected.
So there's something in this specific tarball that triggers the bug.

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
For information about debugging Emacs, please read the file
d:/gnu/bzr/emacs/trunk/etc/DEBUG.
