Maybe some of my used packages referenced the > killed buffers. If so, that would be a bug. `buffer-list' returns the contents of a list of live buffers maintained internally by Emacs. When a buffer is killed, it should be simultaneously removed from this internal list. > The elisp reference manual has mentioned about this behavior: > http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Killing-Buffers. > html#Killing-Buffers > > The buffer object for the buffer that has been killed remains in > existence as long as anything refers to it, but it is specially marked > so that you cannot make it current or display it.

The buffer object remains in existence, but it should always be removed from the list of live buffers. Do you happen to have a Lisp backtrace of this error?
