bug#14526: 24.3.50; Cannot update game score for `M-x bubbles'

[Xue Fuqiao]

To reproduce (at least in my system):
  emacs -Q
  M-x bubbles RET
  <<remove all bubbles>>

Then two buffers appear:

     ---------- Buffer: *bubbles* ----------
 Selected:   25
 Score:    2375
 Game Over!
     ---------- Buffer: *bubbles* ----------

     ---------- Buffer: *bubbles* ----------
     update-game-score(34742) malloc: *** error for object
0xa000000000000000: pointer being realloc'd was not allocated
     *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
     ---------- Buffer: *bubbles* ----------

I think it is a bug in bubbles.el or gamegrid.el.

No, this must be some issue with lib-src/update-game-score.c.

I can't reproduce this on Emacs 26.1 or current master on GNU/Linux.

I can't reproduce it on Emacs 26.3 or current master on macOS either.

Are you still seeing this?  If I don't hear back from you in a couple
of weeks, I'll just close this as unreproducible.

Best regards,

No more information was given within 4 weeks, so I'm closing this bug
now.  If you're still seeing this on a recent version of Emacs, please
reopen the bug report.
