Description: This could perhaps be some problem with bucketizing, the garbage collector, or whatever, but I got killed inside TEDIT while scrolling an AR window after some deletions in my description field. I landed in RAID with an invalid addr and stack'
\FORMATLINE'
\BACKFORMAT'
\TEDIT.SCROLLFN'
SCROLLW'
The \FORMATLINE frame had'
TEXTOBJ = {TEXTOBJ}6,164610'
FMTSPEC = NIL'
CH#1 = 277Q'
OLINE = NIL'
1STLIN = NIL'
I tried ↑Ding back to lisp, but got "Raid': PTR refcnt previously overflowed, but not found in table. {6,30240}". After various desperate and valiant attempts to save what I had, I gave up and rebooted.
Workaround:
