Subject: bug#13594: 24.2.92; [PATCH] compilation-start doesn't consider nil OUTWIN
Date: Wed, 06 Feb 2013 10:35:31 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <jwvr4kte9uq.fsf-monnier+emacs@gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87r4ktoinh.fsf@mail.jurta.org> (Juri Linkov's message of "Wed, 06 Feb 2013 12:12:34 +0200")

Problem is that the functions in display-buffer-alist are supposed to
return either the window they used or nil (to mean that display-buffer
should try the next candidate function).

So returning t is incorrect and can/will lead to bugs further down where
the caller does not expect a t value (most callers of display-buffer
don't expect a nil return value either).
