The attached file contains the top and bottom of a Lisp backtrace I got from C-g, after enabling enter debugger on quit. I tried to send the whole thing, but the mail server bounced it. It's pretty clear to me that EDE is going into (potentially) infinite recursion. I'm not sure if it is really related to svn, or simply to its trying to visit every Makefile.am in the source tree. I try playing around with GDB to see if I can get anything interesting that way, but I really believe the problem is clearly revealed by the attached backtrace. -- Regards, Steven
