[Bug: 21.5-b27] MH-E: Hangs on "Fontifying inbox"

================================================================
Dear Bug Team!

I read my email via MH-E in xemacs. Currently (betas as they have appeared
in Fedora Extras, development branch) this hangs when running mh-rmail,
showing:

 Fontifying +inbox... (regexps)

  [Progress bar, stops at 2.3 or so]  [Stop button]

  Scanning +inbox...

in the echo area. It becomes totally unresponsive, just the buttons at top
(File, etc) show their menus, but they don't act (i.e., File->New frame
does nothing). The kill button in the Gnome decoration doesn't work either,
fullscreen gives fullscreen but the in-xemacs decorations (scrollbar, etc)
don't adjust to the new frame size, they stay put, only the complete frame
becomes larger. After fiddling with the menu buttons, in the last line of
the echo area it shows instead of "Scanning...":

  Warning: Error in `pre-idle-hook' (resetting to nil): Attempt to throw outside of function:To catch `call-process-done' with value `0'

(copied by hand, might have a typo; had to start xemacs with a very wide
frame to get to see it all...). This is /not/ the hung xemacs (guess
why...), but it was started the same way.

The xemacs process just sleeps, it is not in a looping frenzy (says ps(1)).

As you can see, sending mail works fine ;-)
