No, line 819 is this: (defun diary-hebrew-birthday (month day year &optional after-sunset) This doesn't call anything. So this is still mystery in my eyes. Btw, column 56, assuming it is 1-based, is 'a' in after-sunset. Huh?? > But why does (abs 8.0) return an arithmetic error at all...? Hardware problem or some kernel issue are the only things that come to mind. Running under a debugger should bring more info. And I still don't see how 'abs' could be called from that line and that column.
