----------------
Vim is in an eternal loop in the function check_abbr():getchar.c
clen = 1;
while (p > ptr + mincol)
{
p = mb_prevptr(ptr, p);
if (vim_isspace(*p) || (!vim_abbr && is_id != vim_iswordp(p)))
{
p += (*mb_ptr2len)(p);
break;
}
++clen;
}
Where:
p = (char_u *) 0xb9affc5a "clean:c:"
ptr = (char_u *) 0xb9affc5a "clean:c:"
mincol = 0x7fffffff
clen = NNN (+/-)
Using GDB I am able to escape the freeze by modifying "p".
