Subject: custom-reevaluate-setting / custom-initialize-delay
Date: Mon, 22 Feb 2010 20:41:44 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <DCFF7E2D-5388-4B1E-9BB6-674116E807D0@gmail.com> (raw)
There's a bug in the initialization customization variables when this initialization is delayed using `custom-initialize-delay' function.
These get init'd during dumping rather than at run-time. The documentation suggests that it's supposed to happen at run-time.
A symptom of this is that `send-mail-function' is always set to `sendmail-send-it', because `window-system' is not available during dumping.
This is a regression compared to Emacs 22, where this mechanism worked.
I think the correct fix is to not clear `custom-delayed-init-variables' while dumping. Possibly, one would want to not initialize the variables at all (see also the comment in `custom-initialize-delay' w.r.t. evaluating value). The patch below just implements the variant with the smaller change in behavior.
