Ok - do you have any suggestions for how to fix it?

(I wanted to tinker with it myself, but failing to make it fail made me
write here instead :-))

Good question. I don't know about the buildbot, I think my local one
was, because the binary is called "xemacs-21.5-b31-mule".

So if the buildbot's binary is non-mule, it might be a problem only for
non-mule XEmacsen...

                                 o o o

Oh, I just realized that I also have an XEmacs 21.4 installed (Debian
package). "make EMACS=/usr/bin/xemacs-21.4.22-mule" in a fresh Gnus
checkout fails like this:

  Generating autoloads for lisp/gnus-spec.el...
  Unbalanced parentheses
  xemacs exiting

If I roll back the changes to gnus-spec.el, it completes the 'make'
without error.

Interesting, now I have something to tinker with, even though it only is
the old version.


  Best regards,

    Adam
