Message-ID: <48A43108.3050506@gmx.at> (raw)
(symbol-file 'ediff-directories 'defun)
currently returns "ediff" which contradicts the doc-string saying
The value is an absolute file name.
It can also be nil, if the definition is not associated with any file.
I suggest we'd either fix the doc-string appropriately or return
(locate-file (nth 1 (symbol-function symbol)) load-path '(".el" ".elc"))
in the autoload case.
