(For creating this recipe I also moved my personal spelling dictionary
out of the way, in case its contents might have been implicated, as it
appears that even with -Q that dictionary is still used. Also note that
I'm reporting this in a different instance of Emacs since I can't use
the one that has tickled the bug, as it's hung :-)


Get a copy http://ringing.org/nxml-flyspell-bug.xml (also attached to this
message).

Then emacs -Q nxml-flyspell-bug.xml

Then, in Emacs

M-x flyspell-mode
C-n
C-n
C-k
C-n
C-n
C-y

At this point Emacs is hung.


(I've reproduced this on two different machines, albeit both running the
same version of Emacs on the same version of Ubuntu.)

This appears to be already fixed on the master branch.  Please test,
and if it's fixed for you, please close the bug.

Than ks.

I get this bug still in recent Debian lucid 25.2.
Should it be ok there?

This smells a bit like bug 16449 and its merged others,
but I couldn't quite understand the explanation there.
An infloop under an idle timer so inhibit-quit is set and you
can never get out?

No, the master branch is what will become Emacs 26.1.
