I occasionally get a certain strange behavior. For instance, I will type C-x C-w. The display freezes with "C-x-" showing in the echo area, and my Sun goes to 100% CPU utilization. I wait a while and then type C-g. This stops the CPU use. I get a beep, and then the C-w is executed! If I type C-h l, what I see is: C-x C-g C-w C-h l that is, the C-g is recorded before the C-w. Oh, I'm running Emacs under Emacstool under Sun Windows, if that makes a difference. Has anybody else noticed something like this?
