Nope, just the usual brain damage in cl.el. Probably cl.elc was
compiled from a clean directory, without the prior loading. I have
tried a few quick-and-dirty schemes to do this automatically, but
all have caused an infinite loop somewhere, so short of splitting
cl.el again in the half dozen files it used to be...
BTW, version 3.0beta is available in the usual place
cs.rochester.edu:cl.{el,elc,ChangeLog}
I expect it will turn into 3.0 by the time Version 19 is out.
Meanwhile, I will appreciate any feedback. (Especially a proven way
to live with its raveled structure as one file, and still get it
compiled in one shot. Conversely, if someone finds the time to put
the files so that macros appear before they are used...)
