desktop-create-buffer: may call bury-buffer on a just killed buffer (?) |

Severity: minor

Currently, desktop-create-buffer calls bury-buffer on every
buffer listed in a saved version of (buffer-list) so to restore
the order of buffers:
1375 ;; Restore buffer list order with new buffer at end. Don't change
1376 ;; the order for old desktop files (old desktop module behavior).
1377 (unless (< desktop-file-version 206)
1378 (mapc 'bury-buffer buffer-list)
1379 (when result (bury-buffer result)))
This, however, fails – should one or more of these buffers be
killed after the list is saved but before it’s processed, – as
happens with some (presumably temporary) buffers used by
url-retrieve, which is in turn used while restoring EWW buffers
per [1]. (Please note that the patch there is broken, though.)
The patch MIMEd seems to fix the issue for me, although I’m not
as of yet certain that no buffer can be killed in between the
buffer-live-p check and the bury-buffer call.

Thanks, the patch looks good and safe, so I installed it into `emacs-24'.
