I've seen this problem several times too, but did not know there was a bug report and an upstream solution already. Does an upstream/backport patch for emacs23 exist? in case not the severity of that bug should be much higher than normal as it is now! I have had several files corrupted due to this bug (fortunately being able to recover them). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
