That may be, but I was under the impression that Emacs internally should use
unicode, so why is it even allowed to set such a buffer name? Shouldn't Emacs
internals complain when given such strings, or convert them (if charset info
is available)?
This will break for X also, as the title setting code assumes ENCODE_UTF_8
will do the trick, and then sets an UTF8_STRING as title. There has been some
VM-related bugs reported for Gtk+ also. This may be the source of a memory
corruption.
Is setting buffer name with a non-ascii unibyte string considered as a bug?
Then this is a VM bug, but perhaps the title setting code should detect this also.
