bug#9723: 24.0.50; Emacs Clipboard crash

I have something better for you now that I can repro this reliably.

1) Make sure you have a text file > 6500 (do 7000 just to be sure) lines with 
lines > width of the display (i.e. would wrap normally)
2) Put ONLY this in your .emacs

;; linum
(setq-default truncate-lines t)
(require 'linum)
(global-linum-mode 1)

3) Open up a cmd shell and run Emacs -nw
4) M-x shell
5) run "type (your file from 1)"

Should crash around 6500 lines every time. Note this is on Win Server 2003 sp2 
64bit running in a 64bit command shell.

Any estimation of the length of output that is needed to have a crash?
Also, would just "type LARGE_SOME_FILE" do, for example?

This doesn't make any sense.  Maybe again some snafu with frame dimensions?

Please type "source .gdbinit" (unless you started GDB from a directory where 
that file lives), and then go to this frame:

  #4  0x012125ec in display_line (it=0x82c890) at xdisp.c:19369

and type these commands:

  (gdb) pit
  (gdb) print *it->w
  (gdb) pmtxrows it->w->current_matrix
