Yeah, Aidan> there's a decent argument that it might be better in packages, Aidan> but it isn't there for the moment. I'm not sure we're understanding each other. I can understand having the functions in core in 21.5, plus a version in packages using defun-when-void for 21.4. What I'm saying is that there should only be *one* copy in packages, for use by all the packages. But your patches introduce duplicates in gnus, xemacs-base, misc-games, etc. Instead, put one copy in xemacs-base (case-table.el? new file?), and all the other packages can use that copy, yeah?
