The specific org file doesn't matter.
The window size doesn't matter.
This crash happens to me occasionally (2-3 times a week), always on an org file, always on mwheel-up (which invokes mwheel-scroll).

Eli, can you tell something from the backtrace here?
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2014-06/txtkIBvnmHi_F.txt

The critical lines are:

The code can be seen here:

The failing assertion causes a crash, so I'm not sure what's the difference. 
Is there an emacs build that doesn't crash on eassert() failure?

It seems the assertion does basic consistency checks of the IT structure.

What is it->bidi_p? I don't use BIDI text: this happens on ascii org files.


I guess I'll upgrade Emacs and Org and hope for the best...
