Thanks for looking at it. I got the error message again this morning (it wasn't just a bad dream), and I'm trying to think how it could have happened. The way of calling require (require 'semantic/bovine/c-by) with the path included in the required symbol is totally new to me. It just seems like a wrong thing to do. But it's been working for many years, obviously, for some value of "working". I do a git status, and notice amongs my untracked files list: lisp/cedet/semantic/wisent/java-tags-wy.el lisp/cedet/srecode/srecode-template-wy.el , so I've deleted these. It hasn't helped. I've inserted a (provide 'semantic/bovine/c-by) into c-by.el. Now I get other errors: ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; In toplevel form: cedet/semantic/wisent/js-wy.el:58:17: Error: Bad input grammar make[2]: *** [Makefile:295: cedet/semantic/wisent/js-wy.elc] Error 1 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

The word SEMICOLON doesn't appear anywhere in the git log. I really don't want to start burrowing through the internals of the cedet things. I don't understand how Emacs is building for everybody else but not me. I've tried reconfiguring my Emacs with no options to ./configure. This hasn't helped either. Perhaps this conversation would be better on emacs-devel.
