I do not think I can reproduce this, but (window-height win) just returned the buffer win was displaying. I can reproduce it now, but I doubt I can when I have restarted Emacs.
Are you saying that memory is corrupted such that the current window's total_lines member holds a buffer?
This was with my patched Emacs, but there is no patches in window.c.
It doesn't matter where your patches are if they are causing the memory corruption.
I suspect that this has something to do with frame creation since I have seen many crashes there. Another possibility is w32 resources. I see a steady increase in GDI Objects in Windows Task Manager and when that starts to get high very strange things can happen (though it is perhaps some other resource that is depleted).
What are you doing when you see this steady increase? Do you also see it in the current pretest or CVS trunk?
