  /david/ [Epoch 4.0p1 on an SGI IRIS under IRIX 4.0.1.]

  /david/ I recall there being some discussion a while back about
  /david/ epoch crashing and dumping core during a query-replace after
  /david/ several strings were replaced.  I also thought somebody
  /david/ asked for copies of the victims core files (or stack traces)
  /david/ to help track down the bug.  Was that true?  Is this bug
  /david/ still a problem, or has it been fixed in 4.2?  (I'm
  /david/ reluctant to change and rewrite my .el files given the \M-
  /david/ vs. \e- debacle.)

Debacle.  I like that.  :-}

4.2 fixes the \M- problem, so you'd be safe to upgrade.

I use query-replace quite a bit and I've never had this particular
coredump (on the same platform), but I'll take a look...

Thanks,

Marc
