The first substitution fully kills the whole sexp (and inserts a comment that reads "Support for multiline strings disabled." if you don’t read too closely ^^). It’s true that the second does not kill the defcustom expansion, but since it’s part of the intended public API, I’m not so sure we should remove it altogether. I think it’s clearer for the user that way, because the two modifications are kind of documented in the source. Also, it’s shorter. Anyway, Here are the two versions, you decide. Vivien
