Hi, I've been mentioning this bug before, but finally I have some easy steps to reproduce, plus a backtrace. I've seen this problem with the Ubuntu-packaged versions of wl-beta and emacs23, and now reproduced this with a recent bzr built of emacs and the wl packages as built from Dave Abrahams' git repo. The procedure to reproduce (in my case) are quite easy: type some non-ascii characters in a draft message in Wanderlust, something like äëïöÿüäëïöüÿäëïöüÿäëïöüÿäëïöüÿäëïöüÿäëïöüÿäëïöüÿäëïöüÿäëïöüÿäëïöüÿäëïöüÿäëïöü Try to save the draft (C-x s). This works. Now, copy the line about 50 times, so you have a whole block of these characters. If I now try to save, emacs gets very busy (CPU goes to the max), and it never seems to recover (waited for at least 15 minutes), and I have to kill emacs. See the attached backtrace - it was from an -O2 build, but I hope it contains enough info for those in the know. Note, I get this this same behavior in perfectly normal e-mails with only a few of these non-ascii characters. Before, someone suggested using (mel-use-module 'mel-q '("quoted-printable" "Q")) however, that gives me an error instead: insert: Args out of range: "0123456789ABCDEF", 262140 and refuses to save. I suspect something changed in Emacs 23 and Wanderlust (or flim, semi, apel) do not play nice with that. Any kind of solution would be much appreciated. Best wishes, Dirk.
