Sorry, I should have written a longer message, with most, or all,
parts of it written in the first person...
In my experience hanging out at the #emacs channel at Freenode and
asking for help or hints on elisp is fun, and it's easy to test ideas
interactively with C-x C-e... asking for help on the C side of Emacs
is not so fun - patching the C source is considered arcane knowledge
(<- my impression!) and fewer people will be able to discuss that and
to help... also, I don't know how to recompile Emacs after a change in
a .c and restart it in less that 30 seconds (slow machine here - I use
an old ThinkPad with LibreBoot) - in fact I don't think I've ever
patched the C source before! Here's the script that I used to test
Arthur's patch:
# Download the attachments of this message:

# Apply the patches in /tmp/:
cd /tmp/
cp -v ~/bigsrc/emacs/src/lread.c /tmp/
cp -v ~/bigsrc/emacs/lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el /tmp/
# (find-man "1 patch")
patch lread.c lread.patch
patch bytecomp.el bytecomp.patch
# If they applied cleanly, copy the patched files back:
cp -v /tmp/lread.c ~/bigsrc/emacs/src/lread.c
cp -v /tmp/bytecomp.el ~/bigsrc/emacs/lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el
# Rebuild Emacs.
# I usually skip some of the steps below - my way of executing
# these scripts line by line from Emacs is explained here:
# http://angg.twu.net/emacsconf2019.html
# http://angg.twu.net/eev-intros/find-eev-quick-intro.html#6
rm -Rfv ~/bigsrc/emacs/
mkdir -p ~/bigsrc/emacs/
cd ~/bigsrc/
git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/emacs
cd ~/bigsrc/emacs/
time ./autogen.sh 2>&1 | tee oa
time ./configure 2>&1 | tee oc
time make bootstrap 2>&1 | tee omb
time make 2>&1 | tee om
# Run the new Emacs:
~/bigsrc/emacs/src/emacs
Cheers,
