Trying to use eww-open-file to visit the attached HTML file aborts Emacs with the following printed to stderr: character.h:380: Emacs fatal error: assertion failed: 0xC0 <= c To reproduce, 1. Save the attached "buggy_html.html" file somewhere 2. emacs -Q 3. M-x eww-open-file RET /wherever/buggy_html.html RET 4. Wait for Emacs to abort Visiting the file with find-file doesn't abort. Neither does using shr-render-buffer to render the buffer: (with-temp-buffer (insert-file-contents "buggy_html.html") (shr-render-buffer (current-buffer))) I am also attaching the backtrace in the file "eww-backtrace."
