hi.  with a recent org-mode (*), `org-capture` seems to crash with the
message:
----
Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size
----

this happens with (a suitably -L'd) `emacs -Q`
- M-x org-capture
- t
- then crashes

after this crash, i seem to be unable to enter the debugger, etc.
(`(setq debug-on-error t)`) doesn't work after this crash.  my only
recourse appears to be to exit emacs.

stepping through the code, the last routine
was`org-capture-fill-template`.

stepping through this routine, it gets as far as `(org-mode))` in (i
assume)
----
      (let ((org-inhibit-startup t)) 
----
and, in "that" routine, the (presumably) infinite recursion/loop
happens.

i'm loathe (intimidated) to follow the trail into the main code.  i
wonder if anyone might have any ideas?

cheers, Greg

Looks like

Are you on Emacs 24? Can you try to run make before your emacs -Q -L...?

Best,
Ihor

Org mode build process is not standard.  Org mode needs to create
autoload file and generate documentation in addition to normal
byte-compilation.

thanks.  does that mean running "make" in the org directory?

cheers, Greg

If you are pulling Org mode from git and not using straight.el, yes.
Also, see https://orgmode.org/org.html#Installation
