Ah, that makes sense! I probably should have looked up some documentation on
debugging emacs, but I was a bit busy that night.

Unfortunately, after my conversation with Eli I (foolishly) decided that I
no longer
needed that emacs process so it is not available to play with anymore.

If it happens again though, I will post the xbacktrace here.
