I'm sorry about that. When I installed those changes in EIEIO there were a few bugs reported, but since then, it's been fairly quiet, so I was under the impression that things are mostly OK. > Anyway I suspect that eieio implementation has been change > without doing necessary modification in codes that use > eieio. I did test the new code against CEDET's use, but in only fairly limited ways (mostly, enabling semantic-mode and using it to perform completion on a struct field name in regex.c). > Anyway I wonder why my bug report 20647 where I proposed patches to > correct some errors got no answer. Time problem probably. Yup. Have you had a chance to try my reply in bug#20491? > But if you need help for the eieio stuff please simply tell me. Please do send more of those bug reports and (especially) patches. Recipes to reproduce those problems are also very welcome (test cases to add to test/automated are even better), since in many cases I have no idea how the code is supposed to be used. > I think I am able to contribute to that.

Mostly what needs to be done is to make sure that old code still works, and when it doesn't decide whether it should be fixed by changing EIEIO to be more bug-compatible or by changing the old code.
