Hi, emacs,
I've just done a cvs update in CVS head. I really wish I hadn't.
I tried unadorned 'make'. This told me "can't find cl-compile-time-init" on an
(include cl). What????
So back to 'make bootstrap'. It says "can't find eshell-defgroup".
Hey, guys, 'make bootstrap' should work.
MAKE BOOTSTRAP SHOULD WORK.
MAKE BOOTSTRAP SHOULD WORK.
Or, SOMETHING should - the last fallback before shouting naughty words
at high volume. make bootstrap _is_ that last, guaranteed to work
fallback, isn't it? Isn't it? Hey, I'm tired and fed up, and really
ought to be in bed. I'm hacking off you, the reader. I can't even

Hey, make bootstrap should ALWAYS work, shouldn't it?
A quick
So, here's another hour lost to bootstrap hell. This just isn't fun.
A quick find . -name '*.el' | xargs grep eshell-defgroup gives me
(defalias 'eshell-defgroup 'defgroup) somewhere. Hey, is this what's

WHAT'S WRONG WITH DEFGROUP, that you need to call it eshell-defgroup??
Hey, guys, THIS ISN'T FUN!!!! I want to hack Emacs.
I know, I've caused this myself before too, so I'm not claiming I'm
better than anybody else. But I thought we'd got this fixed a few weeks
back.
Why won't our CVS head build NEARLY ALL THE TIME!!!
I wish I hadn't. It's update hell again, in eshell hell.
Back to update hell, in eshell.
update autogen-clean, as recommended by
Heck, I'm going to bed.
WE CAN DO BETTER THAN THIS, SURELY?????
