Subject: 24.0.90; Assertion failed: WINDOWP in xdisp.c
Date: Fri, 28 Oct 2011 22:08:12 -0600

Emacs crashed while editing C code. I believe I was inserting a chunk of
code at the time.

This was Emacs trunk snapshot `emacs-20111024-r106182-bin-i386' running
on Windows 7.

My crystal ball says this will produce "nil".  If so, I think I fixed
this in revision 106232 on the trunk.

Actually, my crystal ball was quite cloudy and therefore wrong:
clear_mouse_face already protects itself against nil.

So I reverted the changes in revision 106232.

I wonder what could mouse_face_window be, though, if it's neither a
window nor nil.
