Yeah, that's on the other branch
fix/segfault-undoable-change-prepare-for-buffer
I think I have managed to replicate this error now -- not unit testable,
but forcing a GC in undo-auto--undoable-change like so:
(defun undo-auto--undoable-change ()
"Called after every undoable buffer change."
(garbage-collect)
(add-to-list 'undo-auto--undoably-changed-buffers (current-buffer))
(undo-auto--boundary-ensure-timer))
then running make check seems to segfault pretty reliably, usually
during bootstrap. fix/segfault-undoable-change-prepare-for-buffer seems
to behave rather better (even with the forced gc).
This seems like the better solution to me.
