Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
I'm trying to hit C-\ on my Windows Vista machine, but Emacs recognizes
the key press as just \ (self-insert-command).
If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
`bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
c:/Program Files/emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.

of 2009-07-30 on SOFT-MJASON

How do you press \ on your keyboard?
If it is with AltGr key, then I think only the Right control key will
work, as the modifier code for AltGr is identical to Left-Ctrl
Right-Alt, so Left-Ctrl can not be applied to keycodes including AltGr.

I do indeed use AltGr to press \.

Trying RCtrl+AltGr++ (which should make C-\ on a Swedish keyboard) on
Windows 7 fails to make a C-\ as well.

Dang, after having looked at it closer, it seems that my right control
key is bound to SPC for some reason. I think it has to do with my
remapping of Ctrl and Caps. I can not verify whether the Emacs Wiki
method works.
