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 ______________________________________________________ [1] patch available in dir: http://www.glug.org/tmp/
