Tasks needed before the next release.
+* TO BE DONE SHORTLY BEFORE RELEASE
+
+** `undo-ask-before-discard', currently set to t for debugging purposes
+has to be set to nil: when t, it can leak memory and cause other problems.
+
* NEW FEATURES
** Face remapping.
** Update Speedbar.
-* FATAL ERRORS
+** Enhance scroll-bar to handle tall line (similar to line-move).
+
+** Adapt mouse-sel-mode to mouse-1-click-follows-link.
+
-** Investigate face cache related crash.
+* FATAL ERRORS
-Indications: Face cache seems to have been cleared, but
-redisplay uses an invalidated face_id with FACE_FROM_ID
-which then returns a NULL pointer. Said to happen with
-isearch faces.
+** Make unexec handle memory mapping policy of the latest versions of Linux.
** Investigate reported crashes in compact_small_strings.
** Clean up flymake.el to follow Emacs Lisp conventions.
-** Fix up url-ldap.el.
-
-** url/*.el has lots of `(declare (special ...))' which
-are meaningless. What's that trying to do?
-
* BUGS
** Ange-ftp should ignore irrelevant IPv6 errors:
* REDISPLAY RELATED BUGS
-** Strange text scrolling with Emacs + GTK
-
-> I could reproduce the problem with the latest CVS.
->
-> % emacs -Q
-> M-x info RET
-> M->
-> C-l
-> C-x ( C-u - 1 C-v C-x )
-> C-x e e e e ...
->
-> I see the problem around "CC mode" and "Forms".
-
-It is not specific for the first line of a buffer.
-
-Rather it happens for lines which are indented but the
-indentation is controlled by a display property and
-the newline is part of that display property -- in
-that case, the indentation is not recognized for the
-first display line.
-
-
** Avoid unbreakable loops in redisplay.
Redisplay may loop if there is an error in some display property, e.g.
is encountered.
-** Problem with modeline and window margins:
-
-The mode line's right "box" line is misplaced under the right margin,
-rather than at the right window edge.
-
-emacs -Q
-(set-window-margins nil 25 25)

-
-** custom mode-line face makes Emacs freeze up
-
-From: Stephen Berman <Stephen.Berman@gmx.net>
-Date: Sun, 24 Oct 2004 02:08:56 +0200
-
-1. Start Emacs with -q -no-site-file.
-
-2. Type `M-x customize-face' and at the prompt `mode-line'.
-
-3. In the Custom buffer for mode-line face
- a. check width and give it the value `narrow';
- b. check height and give it the value 120 in 1/10 pt;
- c. check underline and give it the value `on' (or `colored');
- d. check overline and give it the value `on' (or `colored').
-
-4. Set for current session.
-
-5. Invoke Ediff on any two files.
-
-6. Now Emacs is frozen and consumes 95-99% of CPU.
-
-The customizations in step 3 appear to be the minimum necessary to
-induce this bug. Leave out any one of them and Ediff runs without a
-problem. Also if the 1/10 point value of height is 130 or greater
-there's no bug (with the default font family; with e.g. Helvetica the
-bug is induced only by a value of 100 or less).
-
-I've noticed this freeze up only when invoking Ediff. The only thing
-I've been able to do is kill Emacs externally, via top or with kill
-when run in gdb, after interrupting. When the freeze up happens
-within a gdb session, there is no automatic debugging feedback. After
-interrupting I can get a backtrace, here's an example:
-
-Update: Maybe only reveals itself when compiled with GTK+
