Still I can't reproduce it on a Carbon build with my previous patch,
which is only for the dead-key cases. Could you show a concrete
procedure starting from ".../Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -Q"? What
I tried was:
1) /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -Q
2) Evaluate (setq mac-option-modifier 'meta) and
(global-set-key "\M-n" 'scroll-up) in *scratch*.
3) C-h n to show Emacs News.
4) Hold down Option-n for a second or two, then Option-v for a
second or two, then Option-n again, etc.
I'm using Mac OS X 10.4.9, PowerBook G4, US keyboard layout.
Also, to make sure, please try some case that does not involve any
dead-keys.
