Following the discussion on the emacs-devel mailing list, here is

the updated patch based on the emacs-29 branch.

 

- Update vhdl-compiler definition and docstring to include the

  message type.

 

- Increment vhdl-version to 3.38.5 because of the above

  change. Skip several versions due to divergent development.

 

- Set the type of all other vhdl-compiler-alist entries to nil to

  explicitly declare them as error messages.

 

- Update the Xilinx Vivado compiler entry's library directory, it

  must end with '/'.

 

By defining the error message type to be nil rather than 2, we

can forego the backwards compatibility code.
