MAIN (HEAD) ? or both ? It's better to diff against the EMACS_22_BASE branch: it will make sure the change will be in the next release 22.2, and it will be automatically merged into the trunk anyway. > (Is it something like bug fixes to EMACS_22_BASE and enhancements to MAIN ?) Yes, but yours is a bug report, not a request for enhancement. But please do try to make your changes as isolated and unintrusive as possible, because our reluctance to make dangerous changes in the release branch. Thanks for working on this.
