> To reproduce from 'emacs -Q /path/to/dcl.c’ (file attached):
> 1. M-x `subword-mode' (side question: should C-c C-w still use the
> obsolete alias `c-subword-mode'?).
> 2. Navigate to the function 'int dirdcl(void)' and use
> `narrow-to-defun' (C-x n d).
> 3. From the top of the buffer, use `forward-word' with an arg greater
> than 1 (like C-u 2 M-f).
> 4. Repeat this with C-x z z z z... until you get an error around the
> start of the while loop (2nd to last message in list below).
> 5. Moving point forward then trying the same command again will yield
> the last message with a number greater than `point-max' (5741).

> - `backward-word’ doesn’t seem to have the same problem.
