Only in lisp/cedet/, I think. I'm guessing this is the result of integrating CEDET. If you want the details, maybe the CEDET people and/or Chong (which did most of the work) could tell you the reasons for that. I suggest to look at Git logs and maybe ask them Or maybe Glenn (CC'ed) remembers. > I am not sure why only reftex.el causes me problems -- why not the > others, I wonder? Probably because the range of versions you tried to bisect didn't touch the others. It obviously depends on which files whose autoloads are there are modified by the commits you are bisecting. > Also, the changed line is actually this... > > >> +;;;### (autoloads nil "reftex-auc" "reftex-auc.el" "7c0e0b46919f4ceefe1026e31e73ebcd") > > which is a comment.
