When writing conditional code that tries to work with multiple Emacs versions, it is usually better to test fboundp, boundp, or featurep, than it is to test the major version. I couldn't find any function, variable, or feature associated with this new "feature", shy groups. Is there one that I might have missed? Thanks.
