By your own analysis, there is *no* compatible fix. Whatever the function and variable are called, stuff is going to break because the revision-ID format is different. Now explain to me how reverting the rename would make this (and (bound-and-true-p emacs-bzr-version) (- (read (emacs-bzr-get-version)) (read emacs-bzr-version))) work any differently than with both aliases in place. (I agree that not having the function alias in place was an error on my part.) -- Eric S. Raymond
