As Christian wrote, the stack has things in common with a stack already reported a few days ago, where the *list pointer was invalid. Here is a more direct link: https://www.mail-archive.com/vim_dev@googlegroups.com/msg39698.html We still don't have a fix for this crash. In my case, it was a SIGSEV. In your case, it's a SIGBUS. In my case, it looked triggered by conceal. In your case, it looks like it's caused by folding. But it might be the same bug. It would be interesting to know how to reproduce it.

Reproducing bugs with the latest vim from git is always preferable. I suspect that this bug is still in the latest vim. Vim can be rebuilt with: $ sudo apt-get build-dep vim-gnome $ sudo apt-get install git $ git clone https://github.com/vim/vim.git $ cd vim $ ./configure --with-features=huge --enable-gui=gtk2 $ make -j4 $ sudo make install Plugins should work fine with the latest vim as there are only bug fixes I think. > I am happy to run gdb commands on the coredump, but I cannot send it > as I was editing work code at the time, and besides it's 125 megs. > > Let me know how to proceed. You can try running vim with valgrind and try to reproduce the bug: $ valgrind --log-file=vg.log --num-callers=50 --track-origins=yes ./vim You can also build Vim with asan (address sanitizer) so which will detect memory errors such as use of free memory, which might otherwise not cause crashes sometimes. To do that, you need to rebuild after uncommenting the following line in src/Makefile: SANITIZER_CFLAGS = -g -O0 -fsanitize=address -fno-omit-frame-pointer You should also comment out this line in src/Makefile: #$(STRIP) $(DEST_BIN)/$(VIMTARGET) Regards Dominique -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
