Customize problem, I guess.
The possibly relevant changes would seem to be
2001-09-28 Ben Wing &lt;ben(a)xemacs.org&gt;
* font-lock.el:
* font-lock.el (font-lock-after-change-function):
fix problem with last patch, reported by Katsumi Yamaoka.
2001-09-17 Ben Wing &lt;ben(a)xemacs.org&gt;
* font-lock.el (font-lock-after-change-function):
fix problem when you insert a comment on the line before a line of
code: if we use the following char, then when you hit backspace,
the following line of code turns the comment color.
2001-08-01 Edward M. Lee &lt;tailbert(a)yahoo.com&gt;
* font-menu.el (font-menu-set-font): Default to current font-family.
(font-menu-preferred-resolution):
(font-menu-size-scaling):
Provide gtk defaults, too.
2001-07-29 Mike Alexander &lt;mta(a)arbortext.com&gt;
* cus-face.el (custom-set-face-font-size): Last arg to apply is a
list
(custom-set-face-font-family): ditto
Especially the last one. All from 21.4.5, I don't see anything
relevant in 21.4.4. I'll try to replicate the bug tomorrow.
All that patch did was make the code avoid throwing an error. The error
was caught by something further up the stack so it was never being reported
to the user, but it was definitely not working. if the patch caused
problems it's because some code that was being skipped because the error
was thrown has a bug in it. This is quite possible, of course, but it's
really a downstream bug and not a bug in this patch itself.
By the way, this patch has never been applied to 21.5 since I never got
approval to commit it. I've been running with it for weeks and haven't
seen any problems. I do use font lock a lot and I do change font sizes,
but I don't use the Unix version of XEmacs much.
