Ah, I remember now. OK, I'll start working on it.

This is Mike's stuff. Mike, the following weak list tests in
tests/automated/symbol-tests.el fail with KKCC but pass without KKCC.
Testing /playpen/Projects/XEmacs/21.5/tests/automated/symbol-tests.el...
FAIL: Assertion failed: (eq (length (weak-list-list weak-list)) (if (not reversep) 0
len))
FAIL: Assertion failed: (eq (length (weak-list-list weak-list)) (if (not reversep) 0
len))
symbol-tests.el: 244 of 246 tests successful (99%).
These are both from the first call to `check-weak-list-unique', once
uncompiled, and once compiled.

Yes, that's to be expected. The current KKCC marker is only
temporary, and doesn't handle all instances of weakness. Ben's done
some work on it, but he may have missed that case.

Any idea when that's going to get fixed? Steve's current policy is
not to release a beta until the test suite is passed.

It makes no sense to apply this to a KKCC-enabled XEmacs. The mark
code can only be finalized when the descriptor-ization KKCC of all
Lisp data types is finished, so that's some way ahead.

Fine by me.
Is there a simple way to test (eg, a feature) for the presence of
kkcc?

No; if anyone seriously wants it, I'll add it. But I'd rather not, as
I anticipate people using it for something that'll break later.

OK, I can live with that. I'll stop building with KKCC for a while so
I don't see the failures. Now, lets see what else needs to be taken
care of before I release...
Thanks for the work on this stuff, Guys.
