Well, getting a backtrace produced:
#0 PSEUDOVECTORP (code=15, a=536871013) at lisp.h:2436
#1 font_clear_cache (cache=15546662, address@hidden, f=<error reading
variable: Unhandled dwarf expression opcode 0xfa>) at font.c:2607
It looks like the `font_clear_cache` function was last modified by
Dmitry on 3 March, git commit b0c9db81.
i tried `next`ing through that function for a while[1], and at one point
started getting values for the `entity' variable such as -16777216 and
16777215, which look suspiciously like a 24-bit-related issue to this
untrained eye .... The last value of the `entity` variable i got before
the segfault was 536871013.
Does anyone have any advice as to how i can proceed further?
Alexis.
[1] Not fully, because i didn't know the value of `ASIZE (elt)`, since
according to GDB it had been optimized out, despite me `make`ing the
binary with `-O0 -g3`, as per etc/DEBUG (i'm running gcc 4.7.2).
