(gdb) p/x (it->glyph_row->glyphs[1][20].object) $39 = 0x61334f1 (gdb) p *(it->glyph_row->glyphs[1][20].object) $40 = 0 I'm probably Doing It Wrong (tm), though. The only guess I have is that I had entered a trailing space after that comma, which would highlight it as trailing whitespace because of this snippet from my .emacs: (highlight-regexp "[ \t]+$" 'hi-blue) using hi-lock-mode.
