* bootstrap failure: Invalid read syntax: ". in wrong context" in european.el

On sparc-sun-solaris2.9 bootstrapping fails currently when executing:

 ./temacs --batch --load loadup bootstrap


The error is:

Loading /tmp/emacs/lisp/language/european.el (source)...
Invalid read syntax: ". in wrong context"

Removing the "sample-text" line after:
       ;; Fixme: Welsh/Ga{e}lic greetings
in european.el fixes it.

The same tree bootstraps just fine on GNU/Linux.

Any idea what could be wrong?

The same error occurs when compiling AUCTeX under NetBSD 4.99.63 on
AMD64 for the following s-expression in tex-jp.el (line 264):

(if japanese-TeX-error-messages
(setq TeX-error-description-list
  '(("Bad \\\\line or \\\\vector argument.*" .
"^[$B@~$N79$-$r;XDj$9$k!$^[(B\\line^[$B$^$?$O^[(B\\vector^[$B$N:G=i$N0z?t$,IT@5$G$9!%^[(B")

    ...)))

Emacs bootstrap worked fine with the CVS as of today (2008-06-02),
just a little while ago (at least on this platform).

This must have been something transitory, the bootstrap works fine after updating.

I seem to recall such problem when compiling with unibyte mode.
See <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.auctex.general/1227/focus=1232>.

Bye, Reiner.

That seems to have come from a unibyte/multibyte problem.  I'm pretty
sure my Emacs is multibyte capable, anyways I haven't defined anything
to make it go into unibyte mode.  It's not clearly the fault of
AUCTeX's make system, either; when I just run Emacs and do a
byte-compile-file on tex-jp.el it fails as well.  Nothing shows up in
Emacs' ./configure output as well, at least nothing that flags my
attention immediately.  Could the presence or abscence of terminal
libraries (e.g. ncurses) have anything to do with this?

I can't reproduce the above error, but...

I installed a fix for iso-2022 based code detection.  Could
you please try again?
