Hello!

When launching with -Q --debug-init and inserting the line

	(message ".¡Ṁüßtè VéřşîÖñ — Ääħ ≥ 21 sêîņ,  
ḟûŕ ø,Ø2€¿")

into the scratch buffer GNU Emacs gets rather dysfunctional. The  
scroll-bar of one window is not drawn, echo-area reports

	Wrong type argument: listp, :name

The cause can be the EM DASH ``—´´ (explanation taken from an  
older GNU Emacs 23.0.60):

         character: — (8212, #o20024, #x2014)
preferred charset: gb18030 (GB18030)
        code point: 0xA1AA
            syntax: _ 	which means: symbol
          category: c:Chinese j:Japanese
       buffer code: #xE2 #x80 #x94
         file code: #xE2 #x80 #x94 (encoded by coding system utf-8-unix)
           display: by this font (glyph code)
      -b&h-lucida sans typewriter-medium-r-normal--10-98-74-74-m-60- 
iso10646-1 (#x2014)

or by the GREATER-THAN OR EQUAL TO SIGN ``≥´´ (explanation taken  
from an older GNU Emacs 23.0.60):

         character: ≥ (8805, #o21145, #x2265)
preferred charset: gb18030 (GB18030)
        code point: 0xA1DD
            syntax: . 	which means: punctuation
          category: c:Chinese h:Korean
       buffer code: #xE2 #x89 #xA5
         file code: #xE2 #x89 #xA5 (encoded by coding system utf-8-unix)
           display: by this font (glyph code)
      -b&h-lucida sans typewriter-medium-r-normal--10-98-74-74-m-60- 
iso10646-1 (#x2265)

or by the EURO SIGN ``€´´ (explanation taken from an older GNU  
Emacs 23.0.60):

         character: € (8364, #o20254, #x20ac)
preferred charset: gb18030 (GB18030)
        code point: 0xA2E3
            syntax: _ 	which means: symbol
          category: c:Chinese h:Korean j:Japanese
       buffer code: #xE2 #x82 #xAC
         file code: #xE2 #x82 #xAC (encoded by coding system utf-8-unix)
           display: by this font (glyph code)
      -b&h-lucida sans typewriter-medium-r-normal--10-98-74-74-m-60- 
iso10646-1 (#x20AC)

i.e. a (message "...") in *scratch* with one of these instead of ``... 
´´ creates the functionlessness.
