C-M-x error message: lisp-eval-defun: Process lisp does not exist

[Dieter Wilhelm]

Hi

is it only me that this happens lately?  Since the last weeks CVS ,or
so, I can't use C-M-x any longer.  I even downloaded today the fresh
CVS tree, to no avail, I'm always getting this "Process lisp does not
exist".  Otherwise Emacs seems to work OK (C-M-e, C-x C-e).

I cannot C-M-x, but when I press ESC C-x this is handled like a  
prefix command, i.e. it waits for another key stroke ... no, wait: of  
course I can C-M-x! (I cannot M-x.) I get told: C-M-x is undefined.

Üblicherweise begehen Menschen beim Entwerfen vollkommen  
narrensicherer Dinge gerne den Fehler, das Genie des Volltrottels zu  
unterschätzen.

I didn't explain it sufficiently, I meant C-M-x in the *scratch* or in
another lisp buffer.

I forgot to mention that the key-combo works only in Emacs 22, I'm
sorry.

Works for me in GNU Emacs 22.0.50 and 23.0.0, both from yesterday, on  
the same Elisp expression in *scratch*, i.e. a message is written  
into minibuffer and *Messages*.
