Not a bit! - I hope I had more users like you. I suspect most people
who use this stuff do find bugs, but they go and fix them themselves,
and then they don't bother to report, leaving the bugs safe and sound
to thrive in the product :-\

Somehow you've managed to kill one of the sunrise windows. You could
do, for instance: C-x 0 C-x 3 g in one of the panes and you'd end up
with two windows that look like sunrise panes, but they are not. Does
pressing \ (backslash) before M-o help?

Funny that. Did you get to know the man?
