emacs 18.55 display will do very weird things when you select a deleted
window, including core dump.  Try the following:


(split-window)
(setq sw (selected-window))
(delete-window sw)
sw ; at this point, sw looks like it doesnt know the window is deleted.
(split-window)
(select-window sw)
 ; prepare for the unusual.
