Description Palle Girgensohn 2004-02-06 14:30:18 UTC
When compiling in xemacs, if compile & make output has reasonably long
lines (I think), middle-clicking (or hitting return) on the error to
get to the source throws an error, since the stack for regexp is
overflowed.

Fix: 

The patch at 
<http://list-archive.xemacs.org/xemacs-patches/200310/msg00163.html>
fixes this. Would be great to add it to freebsd cvs as
editors/xemacs/files/patch-regex, and bump the portrevision.
How-To-Repeat: compile some stuff that gives an error
middle click the error to get to the source
if you're lucky, you'll get there, but often, probably if the lines
are too long, you'll get a "Stack overflow in regexp matcher" error.
