Agree. I will be busy the next few weeks, but after that I will look
into it and start a discussion to resolve the differences.
In the meantime I have a question: when byte-compiling vhdl-mode.el with
Emacs 29.1 a 'defvar-1' ends up in vhdl-mode.elc, which causes an error
in older Emacs versions:
File mode specification error: (void-function defvar-1)
Someone reported the error for Emacs 28.2, but I can't reproduce. I can
reproduce on Emacs 15.1. Is this a known problem?
