The @samp{bug-gnu-emacs} mailing list (also available as the newsgroup
-@samp{gnu.emacs.bug}). This is where you will find most Emacs bug
-reports. You can read the list archives at
+@samp{gnu.emacs.bug}). You can read the list archives at
@url{http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnu-emacs}. If you
like, you can also subscribe to the list. Be aware that the sole
purpose of this list is to provide the Emacs maintainers with
@item
The bug tracker at @url{http://debbugs.gnu.org}. From early 2008,
-reports from the @samp{bug-gnu-emacs} list have been sent here. The
-tracker contains the same information as the mailing list, just in a
-different format. You may prefer to browse and read reports using the
-tracker.

All mail sent to the @samp{bug-gnu-emacs} mailing list is also

-true, but we ask you not to post bug reports via the newsgroup. It
-can make it much harder to contact you if we need to ask for more

If your data is more than 500,000 bytes, please don't include it
directly in the bug report; instead, offer to send it on request, or
bug happen again. If you can't make it happen again, at least copy
the whole error message.
+@vindex debug-on-quit
+If Emacs appears to be stuck in an infinite loop or in a very long
+operation, typing @kbd{C-g} with the variable @code{debug-on-quit}
+non-@code{nil} will start the Lisp debugger and show a backtrace.
+This backtrace is useful for debugging such long loops, so if you can
+produce it, copy it into the bug report.
