Re: Emacs uses 100% cpu time

[T. V. Raman]

Stefane, emptying my .emacs file is a hard and  painful thing to
do.

For now I reverted to CVS Emacs from Aug 22 and the bug appears
not to be present. I'll be travelling next weke, so wont be able
to debug this much, I reverted this far back in time because I
didn't want to leave my home machine spinning at 100% the whole
week. I'll  try debugging with a vanilla .emacs next weekend if
we've not chased it down collectively by then.
