System name:		starkiller
Type and version:	SPARC/5 8.0C (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	Run emacs info mode (with multiple emacs windows on the screen) with
M-x info

What's wrong:
	Emacs dies horribly...and quite loudly.  It sends a never-ending
stream of beeps to the console, and effectively locks up the X display.
Stopping the beeps requires logging in and killing the emacs.

What should have happened:
	Well, it shouldn't have sent a never-ending stream of beeps to the
console :)

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	Emacs?  Documentation??  Nah...couldn't happen :)
