Is anyone else still seeing this problem? I finally traced it to the
subst-char-in-region call in fill-region-as-paragraph. In an
apparently random pattern, s-c-i-r will decide to NOT replace all of
the newline characters with spaces. When that happens the fill
algorithm loop forever while inserting newline spaces into the middle
of your paragraph.
Thanks,
Kevin
