It was fixed, in a broken sort of way.  I changed my mind and
removed the code and left it up to the Emacs folks to handle it,
since it's logically their problem, not VM's.

Your Emacs crashes way too often.  I might have an explanation
for the crash after the auto-save error, but I need to look at
the Emacs code more closely to be sure.
