That's not what I intended to test: Emacs crashing on such datastructures prevents more serious automatic tests that can, among other data, also create such structures. So far, this shortcoming has prevented my working further on such tests. I find it hard to believe that a way to crash Emacs is somehow *not* considered a bug. If that is the case, I agree with what Glenn recently said: Just deal with this report in any way you wish.
