Subject: bug#19423: 25.0.50; incompatible change to `make-obsolete' - added 3rd arg should be optional
Date: Sun, 21 Dec 2014 09:19:05 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a864d210-244b-4c28-9287-cd3f7b7c83bd@default> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <abc12fa2-e01a-43c8-b5c7-94a39fcfb72a@default>

Even worse.  It turns out that when parameter WHEN was added
Emacs Dev did the right thing: it *was* optional.

In Emacs 23 someone unwisely changed it to mandatory, an
incompatible change that gratuitously breaks code that could
be used with older Emacs releases.  Pain for no real gain.
