bug#5837: 23.1.95; Nextstep emacs -nw segfaults on startup in ns_set_doc_edited

[Steve Revilak]

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

I've just built emacs 23.1.95 on two Mac OS X systems; one Mac OS
10.6.2 (x86_64), and one Mac OS 10.4.11 (PPC G5).  On both systems
"emacs -nw" segfaults on startup.  The segfault happens so early that
I cannot use M-x report-emacs-bug on the affected systems.

When I run emacs as a windowed application (without "-nw"), then there
is no segfault.

Emacs was configured as "./configure --with-ns".

I've looked through the emacs-devel archive, and found one thread that
discusses a similar crash:

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2010-04/msg00075.html

In my case, the crash happens in a different place (ns_set_doc_edited,
as opposed to alloc.c).

Here is a gdb session + backtrace taken Mac OS X 10.6.2.  The gdb
session shows emacs being started with "-nw -Q".  The presence (or
absense) of "-Q" doesn't seem to change the segfault behavior.
