bug#6738: possible bug in fill-paragraph |

Hello,
Here's a possible bug in fill-paragraph. In my twenty years of using
Emacs (and fill-paragraph), I've never come across something like this.
In addition to observing this bug with:
In GNU Emacs 22.2.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
of 2008-11-09 on raven, modified by Debian
running under:
Debian 5.0.5 Lenny
, I've reproduced it with:
GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2010-05-08 on G41R2F1
running under:
Windows XP Professional
Build 2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.100216-1514 (Service Pack 3)
Here are the gory details:
--------CUT HERE----BEGIN SECTION 1 OF 2--------
0. Invoke Emacs with "emacs -nw -q"
1. Start with this 3-line paragraph:
A former executive testified that David H. Brooks misused company
funds to buy a belt buckle encrusted with rubies, pornographic videos
for his son and prostitutes for his workers.
2. Invoke << C-u 20 C-x f >> with cursor positioned on first word "A".
3. Invoke << M-1 M-q >>.
4. Observe paragraph reformatted to this, incorrectly:
A former executive
testified that David
H. Brooks misused
company funds to buy
a belt buckle
encrusted with
rubies, pornographic
videos for his son
and prostitutes for
his workers.
i.e. with the 6th line ("encrusted with") taking up 21 columns
rather than 20 columns.
