Thanks both of you for responding. My apologies: my original posting,
which had the necessary information, got truncated.
I am using emacs 23.2.1 from Debian testing. apropos-do-all is t. The
error occurs regardless of what I pass to apropos-documentation,
interactively typically; e.g.
C-h d .*documentation.* RET
gives the error as does any string really, whether a regex or not.
I will report a bug if nobody can suggest anything that can alleviate
this problem. Or I may try to install one of the 24.x snapshots, I
guess.
Thanks,
eric
