Thanks for checking into this so quickly. The computer where I saw the
problem was using the latest emacs-snapshot Ubuntu RPM package and so I bet
that is slightly behind the current trunk.
I'll check current trunk before sending a bug report next time.
Thanks also for the tips for submitting bug reports, I'll include a stack
trace as well as more context next time!
