Re: uniquify error

[Richard Stallman]

Could you please send me a *precise* test case for this bug?  The test
case should start with `emacs -q', so that your .emacs file does not
affect it, and it should show exactly what text to put in the buffer,
what commands to execute, and how and where to click.  Also please say
exactly what incorrect results you get.
