Thanks. For the record, here's a simpler way of triggering the same
crash:
emacs -Q
Type in *scratch*:
(let ((coding-system-for-write (intern "\"us-ascii\"")))
(write-region 1 10 "/tmp/SEGV"))
Evaluate this sexp, and you get the same segfault.
The problem here is that we don't check the validity of the
coding-system the user forced on us, until it's too late.
I found a couple more cases of missing validation like this one, and
fixed them all in commit 658f2c4. The diffs are below.
