To whom it may concern:
This may not be a bug, but it my opinion it's pretty close.  When I create
a new file using emacs and want to exit without saving, two prompts come up:
"save file..?" and "modified buffer .. ?".  Both are yes/no prompts, and yet
the first insists on a y/n response, while the second requires the words to
be spelled out yes/no.  This inconsistency is very disconcerting.
