In an Emacs -Q (current 23 CVS build, under NS) and also in Emacs -Q - nw, executing this: (add-hook 'text-mode-hook (defun turn-on-longlines-mode () (longlines- mode 1))) And then doing M-x report-emacs-bug RET leads to a freeze (non C- g'able in NS port at least) just after the subject line has been entered. Note that longlines mode used to be in the menu, implemented using text-mode-hook, so I would recommend this be fixed before release...
