bug#2304: 23.0.90; bootstrapping fails

[Sven Joachim]

After fixing the recent trivial problem in movemail.c, I still cannot 
bootstrap emacs:

,----
| $ make maintainer-clean && ./configure && make
| [...]
| Compiling /usr/local/src/emacs/lisp/progmodes/antlr-mode.el
| 
| In toplevel form:
| progmodes/antlr-mode.el:183:13:Error: Wrong type argument: number-or-marker-p, nil
| make[1]: *** [/usr/local/src/emacs/lisp/progmodes/antlr-mode.elc] Error 1
| make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/emacs/lisp'
| make: *** [lisp] Error 2
`----

The offending line in antlr-mode.el looks like this:

(eval-when-compile
  (require 'cc-mode))

and cc-mode is not byte-compiled yet (and won't by invoking make -k).

Probably due to Stefan's last changes in lisp.el, try 1.95 instead.

I don't understand yet what's going on here :-(

The bootstrap failure is caused by this change:

2009-02-05  Alan Mackenzie  <acm@muc.de>

        * progmodes/cc-defs.el (c-emacs-features): Check the working of
        beginning/end-of-defun-function more rigorously before setting
        argumentative-bod-function.

Thanks, reverting cc-defs.el to version 1.67 fixes the problem.
However, a snapshot from 2009-02-07 had built fine here, so the latest
changes in emacs-lisp/lisp.el may be responsible as well, as martin
rudalics pointed out.

Ah, yes, of course. I should've said "is triggered by". I have not
tried to determine what is the real cause of the bug.

It was indeed:  I'd used (= foo 3) instead of (eq foo 3).

It should be fixed now.

It is, so I'm closing the bug.
