Version information:
GNU Emacs 18.55.1 of Thu Jun 22 1989 on startrek (hpux)
[Also duplicated in 18.55 on a Pyramid.]

Enter the following text into a buffer in c-mode:
#include <blorf.h>
test() {
}

Now put a space at the beginning of the first line, then go to the
beginning of the second line and type a tab...your Emacs will lock
up, and nothing seems to be able to free it.

This isn't legal C code, but it shouldn't freeze up my Emacs
either...
