This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the address@hidden mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

this is an emacs crash that requires my .emacs file etc, but it is
reproducible, so I can run emacs under gdb to investigate this.  I
have done the most trivial things here using gdb:
where/backgrace/xbacktrace.  I will be glad to do more, but I will
need PRECISE instructions on what gdb commands to use.
