GNU Emacs 18.57 supports a new version of the undo support, one part
of which is the buffer local variable "buffer-undo-list". The Elisp
code that was shipped with 18.57 refers to this variable for undo
information. Unfortunately, this means that you won't be able to use
this code with Epoch 3.2, since it is based on 18.55.

One solution, a variation of which has already been mentioned, is to
change your load path based on whether you're running Epoch or not.
What I do is I have a .emacs that looks like

(if (boundp 'epoch::version)
  (load (substitute-in-file-name "$HOME/.epoch"))
  (load (substitute-in-file-name "$HOME/.gnu-emacs"))
)

All my Epoch startup code is in my .epoch file, and all my GNU Emacs
code in my .gnu-emacs file.
