Subject: [PATCH] test: add test for syntax of emacs test library
Date: Sat, 11 Jan 2014 20:10:21 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1389485421-7824-1-git-send-email-david@tethera.net> (raw)

If there is a syntax error in the emacs test library, it causes other
tests to hang or crash without a useful error message.

This test could be eliminated if the error reporting for emacs tests
was somehow improved.
