I get the error:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Constant symbol `:help' specified in defvar")
(defvar :help (quote :help))
We used to defvar keyword symbols that way for compatibility with old
Emacs versions that did not have keywords as a feature. Since
packages continue doing this, we had better turn off the error in that
case at least.
I did that.
