* Emacs crashes when I open a .cpp.file

Hello, emacs crashes when I open a cpp-file (haven't tried with any other 
files that trigger my c++ language hook). The following message is displayed 
in the console:
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual 
way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

[1]+  Exit 3                  emacs read_directory.cpp

I thought that it might be a problem with CC-Mode so I installed the latest 
stable version (5.30.9), but Emacs still crashes. Is there anything I can do 
to track down and maybe solve/work around this error?

I am using the developement version of Emacs, just checked out from the CVS.

CC Mode 5.30.9 is a stable release version, but it's only just been
released in the last few days, so there might conceivably be a problem
with it. 

Could you possibly try the thing again with a stable Emacs (say, 21.3)?
That would at least narrow down where the problem is.

Bear in mind that the latest Emacs CVS is not intended to be a stable
production program.

Thanks for the reply, Alan. I noticed in the CVS that it's using 5.30.9 of 
CCMode too. I have been checking out the CVS sources once day but it still 
crashes when it tries to load CCMode. I will try later with an older version 
of CCMode (5.30.8) and on the latest stable version of emacs as you 
suggested. I know this last question isn't emacs-related but do you know how 
I can check the date and time of the latest checkin to the emacs cvs 
sources?

As the INSTALL.CVS file says, please send any problems you encounter with
this code to emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org (or better yet, report it with M-x
report-emacs-bug).
A crash like you describe is clearly a bug in the C code of Emacs and not in
cc-mode (even if it might be triggered by cc-mode).
