       When using org-mode, occasionally (semi-unrepeatable :( emacs
locks up completely: 100% CPU, doesn't respond to C-g, does respond to
X-redisplay requests --- a kill is required.  

	Unfortunately, the bug isn't readily reproducible, although it
happens reasonably frequently.  It sounds more like an emacs bug, but
it seems to occur only in org mode.  

   	Any ideas?  It might be a font-lock bug, but without being
able to reproduce the bug, I can't really tell.

     Thanks,

	Simon

This'll be 99% useless but:

I saw the same (well, similar) thing a week or so ago when I just started
using org mode. But I then fixed it and can't reproduce it at all. Sigh.

It had *something* to do with the first piece of text in my org-mode buffer
not being a heading (i.e. not starting with one or more * characters). When
I then tried to bring up an agenda view, emacs hung.

As I say, it was *something* like that - but not exactly (I just tried it,
and I can't reproduce the problem).

    No joy I am afraid; having only a heading at the top still causes
problems.  This occurs with both emacs-snapshot-x and
emacs-snapshot-gtk.  Presumably something is going wrong with
font-locking, but I haven't seen anything else like this (even on
google).
