Environment:
	Sun 3/50	SunOS 3.5.1	X10R4		Emacs 18.55

Problem:
	With Emacs busily cogitating on a long-running lisp function,
	typing a great deal of text at Emacs will cause it to exit.

Repeat-By:
	My most easily reproducible case is to kick GNUS into
	existence, which takes quite some time to read the active
	file, comparing against .newsrc and so forth.  While this
	is happening, start typing other stuff at Emacs, e.g., start
	sending mail via  C-x m .  Type a couple hundred characters,
	after which Emacs will simply depart.  No core is left.
