Subject: max-specpdl-size exceeded on "make recompile"
Date: Thu, 18 Nov 2004 22:40:47 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1CUu1H-00015x-00@surf.glug.org> (raw)

in CVS emacs (updated in the last day or so),
w/ patched vc-rcs.el[1], i see the error:

  Compiling /home/ttn/build/GNU/emacs/lisp/vc-rcs.el...
  
  In toplevel form:
  vc-rcs.el:1021:9:Error: Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size

the result is that vc-rcs.elc is not written.  two questions:
(1) what is the best way to fix this w/o changing vc-rcs.el?
(2) should the method for (1) be added to the elisp manual?

i ask (2) because that's where i went first to try to answer (1).
if (2) => "no", (2a) would be "well then, where?".

thi
