49The problem is caused by the Emacs executable and the image library
50having multiple, incompatible copies of the run-time code, which can
51happen when mixing a MSVC build of Emacs with a MinGW build of the
52jpeg library (or the other way around). The fix is straightforward
53and has already been posted on the developers' list, but it is on the
54back burner waiting for a legal comment or an alternate implementation

69When I use tcsh (which echoes command input) in a shell buffer,
70entering "M-x dirs" fails because it mistakens the echoed "dirs"
71string as the directory string to use as input when changing the
72buffers default directory. The attached gziped patch file contains a
73fix. The patch also binds the "dirs" command to "\e\C-m" in
74shell-mode-map (previously unbound) to make it easy to invoke.
75Finally, a test has been added to see if "shell-dirstack-query" is
76non-nil. If so, it is not overwritten.

78To enable the fix, the user must set comint-process-echoes to t.

83Subject: Ange-ftp can't deal with IPV6/IPV4 fallback
84
85Symptoms:
86
87C-x C-f /ftp.nluug.nl:/
88
89The problem is that the DNS first gives an IPV6 address. However our
90router doesn't do IPV6. Ftp then falls back to IPV4:
91
92ftp> open ftp.nluug.nl
93Trying 2001:610:1:80aa:192:87:102:36...
94ftp: connect to address 2001:610:1:80aa:192:87:102:36: No route to host
95Trying 192.87.102.36...
96Connected to ftp.nluug.nl.
97
98Ange-ftp chokes on the `No route to host' message and doesn't look any
99further.
100
101I think in the near future we will see more of this problem, so it might be
102time to make anfe-ftp more intelligent.

1How to Maintain Copyright Years for GNU Emacs

2 3
3 THIS DOCUMENT IS UNDER REVIEW. 4"Our lawyer says it is ok if we add, to each file that has been in Emacs
5 since Emacs 21 came out in 2001, all the subsequent years. We don't
6 need to check whether *that file* was changed in those years.
7 It's sufficient that *Emacs* was changed in those years (and it was!).
4 8
5 DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS -- THEY ARE NOT CORRECT. 9 For those files that have been added since then, we should add
10 the year it was added to Emacs, and all subsequent years."

8How to Maintain Copyright Years for GNU Emacs 14
15For the refcards under etc/, it's ok to simply use the latest year
16(typically in a `\def\year{YEAR}' expression) for the rendered copyright
17notice, while maintaining the full list of years in the copyright notice
18in the comments.
