Hi Rob,
I'm making this copy of David's upstream bug in the hopes that someone
might be inspired to work on it from our side. Please add any
usertags that would make it more discoverable for someone at DebCamp.
Upstream requested reproducing with Emacs 26.2 after David filed this bug:
1. Save the following as test.el
(let ((inhibit-modification-hooks t))
(with-temp-buffer
(insert "P'")
(goto-char (point-min))
(while (re-search-forward "\\([^\\]\\)'" nil t)
(replace-match "\\1`"))
(buffer-substring (point-min) (point-max))))
2. run "emacs --batch --quick --load ./test.el"
3. Under docker, with Debian's emacs-nox (but not emacs-lucid or
emacs-gtk, I get an error "Match data clobbered by buffer modification
hooks".
I don't think this is Debian specific, as someone was also able to
duplicate it with "nixpkgs.emacs26-nox" (also in Docker).
I agree the setup sounds pretty specific, but it is used by a Debian CI
setup, which is why I care.
Here's the build info, copied out of docker:
