See etc/NEWS for a list of changes since Emacs 23.4. Please send me an email reporting success or failure on your build platform. Please report any bugs that you come across via M-x report-emacs-bugs, or email bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org. For questions, email emacs-devel@gnu.org. Thank you for helping to test Emacs. Note to developers: we are coming up on the release, so please exercise great caution committing to the emacs-24 branch from now on. If in doubt about a commit, discuss it on emacs-devel first. I encourage everyone to give this pretest as much testing as possible. Thanks. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 12+ messages in thread

If I'm right, then changes on the branch will not get tested too much. That said, I have no objections committing sooner. Just let me run with it for a while, since until now this change was tested on a single machine which runs Windows 7. It wasn't tested on XP and other users of Windows 7 didn't suffer from the original problem at all. I'd like to have a bit more confidence before installing. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 12+ messages in thread

It is not a regression, and though it fixes a real bug, that bug has never been reported in more than five years, not even in bug#11374, which is just the result of a survey of strncpy calls in the sources, I think. The fix is relatively small, but not trivial enough that it couldn't hide another bug in what is a crucial part of emacsclient.c.

Hmm, it is a corner case. I thought Jim's fix seemed pretty self-contained and clear, and it's always good to avoid buffer overflows. But indeed it's not a regression. So if you guys object to it, I don't mind reverting the commit. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 12+ messages in thread
