When Emacs tries to display the Euro character, e.g. when Euro is typed in or when opening a file containing it and scrolling it to make the character visible, it crashes with the following message:
X protocol error: BadName (named color or font does not exist) on protocol request 77 How to reproduce the bug: - Start Emacs in X. - Evaluate the following code with `C-x C-e': (global-set-key "\M-e" [3876]) - Press M-e. Emacs should crash with the message above. This happens only in CVS Emacs; Emacs 21.4 can display the Euro character fine. I can reproduce the bug in at least Emacs 2006-06-02 and 2006-08-23. I'm sure I was able to use the Euro character in Emacs some time ago, so perhaps reproducing the bug requires certain X environment. I'm also sure I've experienced unreproducible Emacs crashes with the given error message for at least several months, not related to displaying the Euro character.
