Hello,

Emacs crashes when I comment out a line in a C
source code.  I'm ready to post results to help
finding this bug, but I don't know what to post.
Here are some output from gdb:

1. If I start emacs with "r -q", Emacs won't crash.

2. If I start emacs with "r", Emacs crashes when
   I comment the line.  Typing "bt" in gdb shows:

(gdb) r
Starting program: /usr/local/bin/emacs

Could somebody tell me how to locate the bug?
Thanks.

I cannot reproduce this.  Can you give a recipe for producing this
crash, starting from emacs -q?  For example, I do:

1. emacs -q
2. C-x C-f foo.c RET
3. int main () {}
4. C-SPC M-<
4. M-x comment-region RET
5. No crash.

I'm so sorry but I can't reproduce the same problem
after rebooting system today.  Perhaps when Emacs
crashed my system was in a nonconsistent state.
