Re: MUST-SUFFIX argument to `load'?

It might be good for breaking EFS (efs-load) and DSO loading as well.:-) MUST-SUFFIX might be useful in an interactive situation, but isn't that what load-(file|library|module) is for? Our `load' is sufficiently divergent from GNU because of DSO's to say "5th arg to load? Pfft, who needs it." -- |---<Steve Youngs>---------------<GnuPG KeyID: 10D5C9C5>---| | XEmacs - It's not just an editor. | | It's a way of life. | |------------------------------------&lt;youngs(a)xemacs.org&gt;---|
