47 ** Emacs on Windows crashes reading JPEG images from files.
48
49 The problem is caused by the Emacs executable and the image library
50 having multiple, incompatible copies of the run-time code, which can
51 happen when mixing a MSVC build of Emacs with a MinGW build of the
52 jpeg library (or the other way around). The fix is straightforward
53 and has already been posted on the developers' list, but it is on the
54 back burner waiting for a legal comment or an alternate implementation
55 (around 30 lines of code).

69 When I use tcsh (which echoes command input) in a shell buffer,
70 entering "M-x dirs" fails because it mistakens the echoed "dirs"
71 string as the directory string to use as input when changing the
72 buffers default directory. The attached gziped patch file contains a
73 fix. The patch also binds the "dirs" command to "\e\C-m" in
74 shell-mode-map (previously unbound) to make it easy to invoke.
75 Finally, a test has been added to see if "shell-dirstack-query" is
76 non-nil. If so, it is not overwritten.
77
78 To enable the fix, the user must set comint-process-echoes to t.

80 ** TCP server processes do not work on Windows.
81
82 TCP/IP server processes created with `make-network-process' consume
83 excesive CPU on some Windows environments. Usages of 50% and 100%
84 CPU time have been observed on different Window XP configurations.

83 Subject: Ange-ftp can't deal with IPV6/IPV4 fallback
84
85 Symptoms:
86
87 C-x C-f /ftp.nluug.nl:/
88
89 The problem is that the DNS first gives an IPV6 address. However our
90 router doesn't do IPV6. Ftp then falls back to IPV4:
91
92 ftp> open ftp.nluug.nl
93 Trying 2001:610:1:80aa:192:87:102:36...
94 ftp: connect to address 2001:610:1:80aa:192:87:102:36: No route to host
95 Trying 192.87.102.36...
96 Connected to ftp.nluug.nl.
97
98 Ange-ftp chokes on the `No route to host' message and doesn't look any
99 further.
100
101 I think in the near future we will see more of this problem, so it might be
102 time to make anfe-ftp more intelligent.
