And I just noticed that Emacs (but not /usr/bin/emacs) crashes with "Fatal
error (11)" whenever I try to search for all commands that include the word
"mode" using the "C-H a" command, but I've never seen this crash in months of
using Emacs with lots of command searches.  I'm running Emacs 2.0; is 2.1 the
current version?  Is my Emacs just bad, or do you notice the same wierd
behavior?
