I get these by typing in xemacs -q scratch buffer:

C-\
German
quail-latin-1

and typing some things.  I also see this whenever I've toggled off the
input method and back on.

Stack trace:

Signaling: (wrong-type-argument overlayp nil)
  wrong-type-argument(overlayp nil)
  overlay-start(nil)
  quail-toggle-mode-temporarily()


Is there anyway to make quail input accept M-del even on a character
which can be modified?  I'm finding it a bit irritating to discover that 
my typing M-del to kill words is just killing the last character.
