Description Tim Niemueller 2007-05-21 21:43:34 UTC
Description of problem:
When starting Emacs this immediately fails with a glibc error message: memory
corruption detected.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

emacs-common-22.0.95-1.fc7

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install emacs
2. Start emacs
3. see glibc error message
  
Actual results:
glibc detects memory corruption.

Expected results:
Emacs should start.

Additional info:
I have installed emacs-debuginfo, here is the gdb stack trace:
(gdb) bt

My local is de_DE.UTF-8, also try with LANG=c, same result.
