Does this happen in "emacs -Q"? If it does, can you run Emacs under
GDB, set a breakpoint in xselect.c here, on the line that calls
signal_error:
else if (STRINGP (obj))
{
if (SCHARS (obj) < SBYTES (obj))
/* OBJ is a multibyte string containing a non-ASCII char. */
signal_error ("Non-ASCII string must be encoded in advance", obj);
(it should be line 1731 of xselect.c)? Then repeat the recipe, and
when the breakpoint breaks, produce a backtrace, like this:
(gdb) thread apply all bt
and post it here.
Thanks.
