Sorry for the late reply, I have been on vacation for a few weeks and busy at work otherwise. On Thu, May 21 2009, Chong Yidong wrote: > If you can reproduce this bug, could you try to investigate? A > backtrace would be useful. I can (or better say could with 23.0.92 - haven't tried newer pretests) reproduce the problem. I'll try the most recent pretest next week. But at work (where the windows box lives) I don't have a debugger installed and I don't now what I need to install/download to get a working debugging environment for Emacs on Windows Vista. So it will take me quite a lot of time to figure out what is required and to set it up. In etc/DEBUG I can only see instructions for Microsoft Visual C++, or am I missing something? - What do I need to install to debug a MinGW/MSYS build (Jason's build) on MS Vista? - To put a breakpoint, of course I need to install the Emacs sources. How do I have to combine the source (emacs-*.tar.gz) and the binary (windows/emacs-*-bin-i386.zip) correctly? - Jason suggested: "find the location where that message is emitted, and put a breakpoint there"... Can someone assist me with this? I'm not familiar with Emacs' C code. From rgrep on 'MEM.FULL\|memory_full' it's not obvious for me which would be the right function.
