Error in `post-command-hook'

Since the v5.588 of tex.el I get the following error message whenever I
try to edit a .tex-file:

(1) (error/warning) Error in `post-command-hook' (setting hook to nil):
(wrong-type-argument number-char-or-marker-p nil)

I created this message with a complete empty XEmacs like Ralf described
in his mail from 2006/6/10.

What can I do to prevent this message? I don't see any actual effects
which correlate with this message.

Following the bug report:

That was actually a bug in the latest prv-xemacs.el file.  Should be
fixed now.  Thanks for the report.

Oops.  We could use more XEmacs testers.  That one would have been
embarrassing to catch only after the next release.

Not that the same error has not been in prv-emacs.el, too.

Interestingly Emacs hasn't complained.  Perhaps `distance' never
becomes nil in Emacs.

It does, but the comparison with 0 occurs in XEmacs even when no
preview is active at point.

As a net result, the error would have occured less often in Emacs,
presumably just when switching between several buffers with previews.

Fixed in CVS (together with the typo you reported).  Thanks for the
report.
