[f28166dc9a56111606be8ac50ad38179a66ea636 from today]

This bug is reproducible: I'm using 'mew' as my e-mail reader, and one
of the inbox messages (already delivered as one file per message to a
mew folder) causes the failure while the overview of e-mails gets
(re)generated.

Thanks.  Any hope of having a reproducible recipe that doesn't
involve that particular message and/or mew?

Alternatively, does reverting dc3006cf1419e5b22c35fa36d79ba029d0482df1
make this problem go away?

Alas, no.  I'm willing to help with further analysis if you tell me
what to do.

I'm attaching the problematic e-mail; however, I decoded it with
'munpack -t' and also with a small perl script to get the header lines
in standard UTF8, and Emacs was able to read this data just fine.

For bisecting the issue, what date or commit do you suggest as the
starting point for testing?

No, it doesn't.


    Werner


PS: If I call 'gdb ./emacs' in the build directory, which .elc files
    from Emacs are read and used?  The installed ones (from a previous
    installation), or the ones in the build tree?

How about 31182c1d17f6f7bc946d5e4576e025c9b975e0b5?

If that doesn't help, either, I guess start from the branch point of
emacs-27, and if that version also exhibits the problem, try Emacs
26.3.

Thanks.

Thanks.  Do I have to run 'make install' to make emacs use a
revision's elisp files?  Or can this be safely ignored, just using
'gdb ./emacs' for testing each bisecting step?

You can safely run Emacs uninstalled, from the src directory where the
binary was built.  It will use the Lisp files from the same tree where
the src/emacs which you invoked lives.  (Sorry I didn't answer your
previous question about this.)

I went back to emacs-26.1-rc1, and it crashed in the same manner.  I
tried to go back to emacs-26.0.90, but this older emacs didn't run mew
(complaining about an unsupported image mode; I guess I would have to
adjust the build options but I was too lazy).

So it seems to be an old problem.  How to proceed?

A reproducing recipe sounds like the best approach.  Unless someone
could spot the problem just by looking at the code.

Thanks.

OK, here it is.

1. Save your '~/Mail' order in case you have one, then do

     mkdir Mail
     cd Mail
     mkdir inbox

   in your home directory.  Uncompress and copy the attached file
   '633.gz' into the just created 'inbox' directory.

2. Install mew.  I do this directly from the git repository.

     git clone git://github.com/kazu-yamamoto/Mew.git
     cd Mew
     ./configure
     make
     make install

   Let's assume this gets installed into the default location

     /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/mew

3. Start emacs in 'src' directory with

     gdb --args ./emacs -Q

4. In the '*scratch*' buffer, evaluate

     (add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/mew")

5. Execute

     load-library mew
     mew

And voilà.

Thanks.  An 8-year old mystery that was left unsolved strikes back.

Does the patch below fix the problem for you?  It fixes the assertion
violation on my system, but the message comes out with some raw bytes,
and its coding-system is set to ctext, which sounds wrong (should be
UTF-8, I think).  Is this normal or expected for this particular
message?

Regarding the patch: a very similar issue was discussed here:

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2012-07/msg00399.html

It started happening when the assertion was changed to reject negative
values.  At that time, Andreas (CC'ed) suggested a change that would
allow us to keep the amt == 0 assertion; maybe he will have a solution
along those lines in this case as well.  If not, I will install the
below on the emacs-27 branch some time soon.

Here's the patch:
