Hello,

Since ~2 days the branch master refuses to build in my docker images, is
this known/normal?

#38 435.6 Loading macroexp.elc...
#38 435.6 Invalid read syntax: "?"

https://gitlab.com/Silex777/docker-emacs/-/jobs/774443194

Kind regards,
Philippe

This has recently been addressed in `emacs` with a series of 3 commits
each trying to fix it slightly differently.
I don't know how to reproduce the original proble, so if it affects you,
can you try the most recent `master` and see if it still affects you?

BTW, this is bug#41250, so please reply to `41250@debbugs.gnu.org`
rather than to `emacs-devel`.

The problem only happens if you start with a pristine checkout of the
sources, or run make extraclean (which also deletes lisp/leim/ja-dic,
unlike make bootstrap), and you are lucky enough that lisp/leim/ja-dic
happens to be recreated before lisp/international/mule-util.elc.

This is exactly how I build master: checkout the repo then autogen &&
configure && make.

Thanks, I'll watch #41250 then.

The recent changes has fixed the problem for me (

I had a similar "Invalid read syntax" error when doing `eval-buffer'
while AUCTeX' texmathp.el was opened (but didn't have time to report
it).  With the current master, it works again.
