Package: x-symbol
Version: 4.43-5
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi,

The x-symbol mode won't launch here. The first error I get is:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Value out of range for variable 
`gc-cons-threshold'")
  x-symbol-init-input()
  x-symbol-init-language(tex)
  x-symbol-language-value(x-symbol-token-grammar)
  x-symbol-decode-all()
  x-symbol-mode-internal(t)
  x-symbol-mode(nil)
* call-interactively(x-symbol-mode)
  execute-extended-command(nil)
* call-interactively(execute-extended-command)

Then the x-symbol menu is not shown, the nice character conversions are not 
done (e.g. \alpha displayed as a real alpha) and each time I do something I get 
a (wrong-type-argument arrayp nil) error. For example,

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument arrayp nil)
  x-symbol-encode-all(#<buffer  x-symbol conversion> 1 6612)
  x-symbol-write-region-annotate-function(1 6612)
  write-region(1 6612 "/home/pps/smimram/rcs/rcs.tex" nil t "~/rcs/rcs.tex")
  basic-save-buffer-2()
  basic-save-buffer-1()
  basic-save-buffer()
  save-buffer(1)
* call-interactively(save-buffer)

or

etc.

Please notice that my arch is amd64 (this might be relevant since I don't have 
any problem on my i386 box).

I know almost nothing about emacs internals or elisp but I'd be glad to help if 
I can.

Regards,

Samuel.
