24.3.50; cache-long-scans t breaks dired |

Hello,
here, cache-long-scans t in dired does speed up moving by lines a lot,
but it also breaks dired. Every time a file's line is updated, stuff
like
//DIRED// 45 51
//DIRED-OPTIONS// --quoting-style=literal
is inserted into the buffer. File operations raise errors.
A minimal example from emacs -Q:
- dired a directory
- there, M-: (setq cache-long-scans t)
- on a file, hit l (maybe twice)
Then I get additional lines like above.
Thanks,
Michael.

Thanks, this is now fixed (as of trunk revision 114981).
It was a tip of an iceberg, btw, and affected any command that invokes
call-process with a non-trivial value of coding-system-for-read
(i.e. when the text read from the sub-process needed to be decoded).
