[OK] 21.2 "Artemis" XEmacs Lucid (beta8) on i586-pc-linux

Patched from beta-7; built and runs fine. One oddity which I've noticed: the following error-message is generated during the build, and this has also been true for the last several 21.0 betas and every 21.2 beta excepting beta-6. Here it is: While compiling toplevel forms in file /usr/local/src/xemacs-21.2-b8/lisp/finder-inf.el: !! Invalid read syntax ((". in wrong context")) When this error appears in a build the result is a non-functional finder. Does anyone else get this error, and just what does it mean? uname -a: Linux liatris 2.2.0-pre1 #16 Mon Dec 28 22:17:42 CST 1998 i586 unknown ./configure '--prefix=/usr/local/xemacs-21.2' '--with-site-lisp' '--package-path=/usr/local/xemacs-beta/lib/xemacs/packages' '--gung-ho' '--with-xpm' '--with-tiff=no' '--with-dialogs=athena' '--error-checking=none' '--debug=no' '--without-toolbars' XEmacs 21.2-b8 "Artemis" configured for `i586-pc-linux'.
