A couple of weeks ago, after an update, two things broke: -- send-mail-function's value went to nil; doing a "make bootfast" cured that. Did not look into it again. -- history search broke, in all context where I use it. I just tried it again: invoked several nonsense commands via M-!, then tried M-! M-r something RET and got back a beep with "No previous history search regexp". *Messages* Buffers looks like this: gibberrish: Command not found. garbage: Command not found. nonsense: Command not found. if: No previous history search regexp Enabling debug-on-error has no effect. Neither does "make bootstrap", which is a fairly slow exercise on my machine. Ideas? [For the record, Solaris 7 on Ultra60, gcc 3.1.] Any help would be appreciated. --BA
