    My apologies; I guess thought it was clear enough.

It is very hard to make a verbal description clear enough.
By trying to write the bug report this way, you are taking
an unnecessary risk.

So instead of writing a verbal description and trying to make it clear
enough, what you should do is show the precise input you used.
That's the reliable way to make a bug report clear.

Please read the Bugs section in the Emacs 19 manual to see
guidelines on how to write a bug report so that the bug can be fixed.
