Re: 24.3 status update

[Lluís <xscript@gmx.net>]

This brings up an uncolored scratch buffer:

  emacs -q --eval '(global-whitespace-mode t)'

while this brings it up with colors:

  emacs -q --eval '(message "buh")'


This is using Julien's emacs-snapshot 2:20130224-1.


I've also been unable to disable whitespace-mode for a very long time (when
disable, it still shows its highlight colors), but I've been too lazy to fill-in
a bug report.


Thanks,
  Lluis
