Thank you very much! And I see in an earlier post you've already
identified the place where current Emacs diverged, which was done by
Stefan Monnier. I'm convinced; we don't need to understand the
underlying implementation (I thought we did need to understand
copy-syntax-table, at least, but in the first place that call was
evidently just a thinko that we sync'ed to)
One significant difference between Emacs 21 and XEmacs 21.5 in this
respect, however, is that the implementation in Emacs 21 is working
correctly (even with the call to `copy-syntax-table') while the same
implementation fails in XEmacs 21.5. I'm not sure if this points to a
bug in `copy-syntax-table', though.
