No. In the code you quoted from Fpurecopy symbol is only put in Vpure_uninterned_symbol_table when it is uninterned _at the time of the purecopy_. Probably in this case it is interned at that time (although I do not know how). I agree the code you cited from bytecode.c looks correct. I also read through it when hunting fro this bug. > > > I am not sure this what Martin actually fixed. > > You mean Kyle?

No. That reference exists only if it was uninterned before. I still think that is the best explanation for the crash, giving the symptoms. Jan

Apart from rendering it useless. What i meant that with the above setting it should not be needed to redefine kill frame. Jan

I have my X resources set correctly, and without them, I get an italic font which is not only ugly, but a slightly different size from my regular. I think that the problem is that the italic font is built before .emacs is read. bold-italic is even worse off, since `x-make-font-bold-italic' doesn't honor *try-oblique-before-italic-fonts* (yet). > I can always use X resources for this, but I've been trying to move > away from that and setting everything in lisp.

It stopped working for me and I haven't had a chance to look into why. The splash screen shows a yucky bold italic font, which must be generated from the italic courier font instead of oblique courier font. I can always use X resources for this, but I've been trying to move away from that and setting everything in lisp. Ray

Re: bug report: cl-extra version 2.02, equalp 25 years, 7 months

The following message is a courtesy copy of an article that has been posted to gnu.emacs.bug as well. [ For xemacs-beta folk: equalp is broken in XEmacs; (equalp '(1 2) '(1 3)) returns t ] daveg(a)synaptics.com (Dave Gillespie) writes: > No, the correct code is this: > > ((consp x) > (while (and (consp x) (consp y) (equalp (car x) (car y))) > (cl-pop x) (cl-pop y)) > (and (not (consp x)) (equalp x y))) > > BTW, I don't know what the "XEmacs change" comment refers to, > since the lines that follow it are unchanged from my original > code as far as I can tell. The comment probably refers to those lines being different to what is in FSF Emacs. I'll apply your fix to XEmacs source; thanks.

I'm not sure why this is happening. Are you sure that you have italic courier fonts in 120? Anyway, you may get a better result with the following in your .emacs: (setq *try-oblique-before-italic-fonts* t) > If i set: > Emacs.default.attributeFont: -*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-* > Emacs.italic.attributeFont: -*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-* > all goes fine, till i use info: the info node face, whice is bold italic, > goes again larger than should be... :( But that is not solving your problem really, since you are just losing the italic font altogether (by making it regular). If the previous hint doesn't work, try this, instead: Emacs.italic.attributeFont: -*-courier-medium-o-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-* Emacs.bold.attributeFont: -*-courier-bold-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-* Emacs.bold-italic.attributeFont: -*-courier-bold-o-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-* Of course, if you don't have these fonts, then that's what XEmacs is really having a problem with. -- Colin

That's why I said that the old stuff behaved this way for strings; by "this way" I referred to what you stated about immutable object's plists being immutable as well.
