That's how it ought to be, yes. And if you cannot reproduce the
problem, that explains why upstream didn't bother (and probably filed
my report under "junk" ;-)).
Did you really try this with emacs-snapshot, or with your own
installation of Emacs? I notice that you elided the reportbug info.
It's my own installation only insofar as I habitually built from
source (I did this with every weekly snapshot in the last four
months), but I didn't change anything. Here is the output of
report-emacs-bug in the situation after quitting:

I noticed that I get another file in this situation, a dangling
symbolic link:
.#bar -> [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1134898377
Any idea how that comes and what it means? Surely [EMAIL PROTECTED]
is <user>@<hostname>.<emacs-pid>, but I don't know the meaning of the
the last number, which is always the same.
I will install your official binary emacs-snapshot packages and see if
the problem still appears. Anyway, it seems that I will have to debug
it myself if other people don't see it.
Regards,
Sven
