This is a bug in the syntax functions in the Emacs core. I've further minimized the test case to this: 1. Start Emacs with -q -no-site-file. 2. Create a new buffer in C mode. 3. Enter: À RET ( 4. Narrow the buffer to show only the open paren. 5. Evaluate: (forward-comment -1) An error "Error in syntax_table logic for to-the-end intervals" is signalled. I expected the function to not move the point and return nil, as it does if the buffer isn't narrowed. Furthermore, I've no idea what the error means and how the caller is supposed to handle it. Perhaps it should be an internal assertion instead. > When you move the cursor one line up, hit TAB, move the > cursor one line down, and hit TAB, then it works. > > This doesn't happen when you are using global-font-lock-mode. The various caches in CC Mode probably avoids the error in these cases. ------- End of forwarded message -------
