bug#3884: 23.1.50; Overflowing pure space

[jpff]

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 emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

Since yesterday starting emacs reports that pure space has overflowed;
starting with -q make no difference.
Seems to affect other action, but not investigated then yet

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
/home/jpff/GNU_21/emacs-22.0.50/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
