Dear Bug Team!
When trying to compile muse-mode with recent versions of
XEmacs I (others as well) got a `max-specpdl-size'-error.
The maintainer of the package was able to pinpoint the issue to
recursive calls of a defsubst. Here's what he said:
,----[
https://gna.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=4682#comment8 ]
| muse-style-elements is a defsubst instead of a defun, and it also
| calls a defsubst function (muse-get-keyword). For that matter, it also
| calls itself recursively. Perhaps there is a bug in XEmacs beta that
| causes it to trip over one or both of these conditions. It would be
| nice if someone could alert the XEmacs developers about this behavior,
| because it doesn't happen in XEmacs 21.4 or Emacs21 or Emacs22
|
| For now, I'll just change muse-style-elements to a defun (I don't like
| defsubst's that much anyway).

Any ideas?
Best regards,
