I can't reproduce the crash with Emacs 22.2.  Maybe it's due to a Debian
change?

Could you check if the crash happens with a vanille Emacs 22.2
downloaded from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/ ?

Also, does the crash happen with Emacs CVS (or the Debian emacs-snapshot
package)?

Thanks.

  Putting the following in one's .emacs causes Emacs to crash on startup:

  (setq file-coding-system-alist nil)
  (load "/dev/null")

  This happens because mule.el wrongly assumes that last-coding-system-used
  cannot be null on line 84.
