Re: bbdb 1.18 problem w/ xemacs 21.1.4

.... Just to confirm that there isn't something bizarre in my setup that is triggering this error, I am able to invoke the problem with the following: * Move your ~/.bbdb off to the side * Invoke xemacs -vanilla * Run M-x bbdb RET and press RET when it asks you for a regexp * Run M-x toggle-debug-on-error RET * In the *scratch* buffer, evaluate (bbdb-update-records '((recipients "To" (&quot;foo(a)bar.com&quot;))) nil t) * Press y to confirm you want to add this record to the BBDB * See the backtrace: Signaling: (void-function bbdb-event-to-character) bbdb-event-to-character(#<keypress-event y>) bbdb-prompt-for-create() apply(bbdb-prompt-for-create nil) bbdb-invoke-hook-for-value(bbdb-prompt-for-create) bbdb-annotate-message-sender((&quot;foo(a)REMOVEME.bar.com&quot;) t t bbdb-prompt-for-create) byte-code("..."

That form is not evaluated when the bbdb-com.elc file is loaded, so bbdb-event-to-character is a void function. I guess this is more of a BBDB problem, but it seems serious enough IMO that v1.18 of the XEmacs BBDB package should not be released. -Mark
