bug#22806: 24.5; Emacs crash on Windows 7

[frederik . fouvry]

It is hard to describe when the crashes actually happen, they just
happen fairly frequently, most of the time when I'm using dired-mode
or nxml-mode (but not necessarily only in those buffers, it can also
be the minibuffer).

This is the stack trace that I got.  I don't know if this is of any
help (I only saw the instructions below after restarting Emacs).
