Lockups in ruby-mode

[Bart Bunting <bart@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm seeing something strange with ruby-mode.

I'm running the latest git versions of both emacs and emacspeak and even
the simplest things are hanging ruby-mode.  Not sure when this started though.

Firstly I have the most basic emacs config possible, just enough to get
emacspeak talking.

To reproduce the bug simply open emacs and find-file /tmp/test.rb
type:
puts "test"
and hit enter twice.
this is causing a hard lockup for me.
Several c-g itterations will eventually return to almost working.
I find that once this happens quite often strange things are now
happening like  find-file doesn't speak as expected any more.


Whilst emacs is hanging and when I send a SIG usr2 to emacs to cause it to backtrace I get the
attached backtrace.:

To try and minimize anything else that is being loaded I am launching emacs in the following way.  Also note I'm using OSX.

open -F -n /Users/bart/emacs/head/Emacs.app  --args -fg white -bg black  -Q -l /Users/bart/emacs/site-lisp/test-init.el --no-splash  

/Users/bart/emacs/site-lisp/test-init.el contains the following minimal
config

;;; init.el
;; This is the first thing to get loaded.

(setq load-path (cons "~/emacs/head/src/emacspeak/lisp" load-path))
(setq emacspeak-directory "~/emacs/head/src/emacspeak")
(setq dtk-program "mac")
(setq mac-default-speech-rate 500)
(load-file "~/emacs/head/src/emacspeak/lisp/emacspeak-setup.el")

Can anyone else reproduce this?

Any suggestions as to what else I can do to track this down?

Kind regards
Bart
