Fraid I can't reproduce it. Please follow the procedure that Glenn said: copy the text of M-x report-emacs-bug and send it to bug-gnu-emacs. For one thing, that text will include information that is likely relevant, such as the system on which you are running Emacs. > I can't use report-emacs-bug because there's no email on the machine > where my emacs is running. BTW, with the latest changes in trunk, it should be easy to get SMTP mail running; then you can send mail from Emacs (unless the machine has no net connection at all).
