Assuming RCS is installed and on the path, `vc-annotate' fails (for
files under RCS).

Recipe:
SET RCSINIT=-x,v
SET TZ=Europe/London
runemacs -Q

Visit a file under RCS version control and invoke `vc-annotate'.
Result: error "Symbol's function definition is void: sw" (at
vc-rcs.el, line 1309).

I get the error even without setting RCSINIT and TZ.

And here's the Lisp backtrace:

>   vc-rcs-parse()

>   vc-annotate("d:/foo/bar/baz.c" "0.93" fullscale)
>   call-interactively(vc-annotate nil nil)

Emacs 24.1 doesn't have this problem.

They are indeed not relevant, I shouldn't have implied otherwise. (All
our RCS master files are made with those settings so for me, RCS
"doesn't work" without them.)

I'm having fun following the trunk, though of course it's less stable
now after the release. In particular I gather that Stefan has replaced
the `flet' machinery.

Here's what the expansion of

(flet ((sw () (skip-chars-forward " \t\n")))
  (sw))

looks like in 24.1:

(let*
    ((--cl-letf-bound--
      (fboundp 'sw))
     (--cl-letf-save--
      (and --cl-letf-bound--
         (symbol-function 'sw))))
  (unwind-protect
      (progn
      (fset 'sw
            (function*
                   (lambda nil
                            (block sw
                                      (skip-chars-forward "  \n")))))
                                      (sw))
    (if --cl-letf-bound--
    (fset 'sw --cl-letf-save--)
      (fmakunbound 'sw))))

whereas in the current trunk it looks like this:


(let*
    ((x
      (cl-function
       (lambda nil
        (cl-block sw
           (skip-chars-forward "    \n")))))
     (x
      (symbol-function 'sw)))
  (unwind-protect
      (progn
      (fset 'sw x)
      (sw))
    (fset 'sw x)))

So there's a couple of things wrong with the new version:
`x' used twice as a local variable.
(symbol-function 'sw) not guarded by an (fboundp 'sw) check.

The latter is the immediate source of the error AFAICS.

That's an illusion: these are two different uninterned symbols (of the
same name).

> (symbol-function 'sw) not guarded by an (fboundp 'sw) check.

Indeed.

Does the patch below fix things?

Well no, because there are multiple `flet's in the file and that's not
the one giving the immediate error. Even if I replace every flet with
cl-flet, it still fails. (void-function tok+val) in vc-rcs-parse when
trying to define k-semi. Test case:

(cl-flet ((f1 (a) (+ a 1))
          (f2 (b) (+ (f1 b) 2)))
  (f2 1))

Duh, right.  I have a patch to make flet behave as before, but that
behavior is a real horror, so I'd really prefer to move away from it:
cl-flet implements the Common-Lisp semantics, which is a lot saner.

Does the patch below fix things, this time?
