vc-annotate causes Emacs to die

[Robert J. Chassell]

In today's CVS snapshot, Tue, 2002 Jul 23  13:05 UTC,
GNU Emacs 21.3.50.123 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit).
Emacs started with:

    emacs -q --no-site-file --eval '(blink-cursor-mode 0)'

`C-x v g' (vc-annotate) causes Emacs to die.

To reproduce, visit:

    emacs/lisp/etc/NEWS
or 
    emacs/lisp/calendar/solar.el

and give the vc-annotate command `C-x v g'


The backtrace is:
