Hi,
I'm having a problem with seeing the output of `emacs-version' that
I need help with tracking down.
With the pretest version of Gnu Emacs:
In GNU Emacs 24.2.91.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601)
of 2012-12-15 on MS-W7-DANI
Bzr revision: 111040 cyd@gnu.org-20121215141602-c4qmr11gc39rrpng
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 6.1.7601
I can see the value of `M-x emacs-version' both in the echo-area and
in the *Messages* buffer.
This is both with my full setup and with `runemacs.exe -Q'
However with the latest trunk version (bzr 111253) I can only see
the `emacs-version' value with `runemacs.exe -Q'
With my identical full setup I don't see the `emacs-version' in the
echo-area nor in the *Messages* buffer with trunk version.
The pretest command is:
C:\emacs-24.2.91\bin\runemacs.exe
The trunk command is:
C:\emacs-24.3.50\bin\runemacs.exe
Both commands are run from the CMD.EXE prompt with NO changes to my
environment, i.e. identical user configuration files.
How can I debug this?
Thanks.

So, do the usual thing of commenting out half your init file to identify
which half has the problem, then once you know which half, comment out
half of what remains, and so on, till you narrow down the problem.
You might start by C-h f emacs-version...

When I invoke `runemacs.exe -q`, the problem still occurs.
So, perhaps the problem is in my site-lisp directory.
> You might start by C-h f emacs-version...
From a `runemacs.exe --no-site-lisp is see:
emacs-version is an interactive compiled Lisp function in
`version.el'.
So I checked my site-lisp directory and I had:
simple.el
simple.elc
subdirs.el
So to test, I copied the current lisp\simple.el* to site-lisp and I
now see:
emacs-version is an interactive compiled Lisp function.
(No 'version.el')
OK, seeing that message from `C-h f' is no problem.
However, when I subsequently startup Gnus, I see the problem with not
geting `emacs-version' to work.
Of course, the solution is to delete the simple.el* files from the
site-lisp directory.
But should having the existance of the current-up-to-date simple.el*
files in the site-lisp directory cause this problem?
You can close this bugreport if it is deemed not interesting to look
into why this happens (with subsequently starting Gnus?) since I can
just remove the simple.el* files from site-lisp.
Thanks.

OK, good. I don't think this is worth investigating further.
