Sorry. > whether it is still supposed to be supported to avoid me wasting > time on Emacs 21 support, Yes, it is supposed to be supported. I don't test with Emacs 21 (nor XEmacs) though. The major reason not to drop support for Emacs 21 is that we won't gain much because often the same code is necessary for XEmacs 21.4 (and 21.5). > like a different fix for this inconsistent `declare' if requiring cl > isn't acceptable? I've committed this: ;; Only necessary for `declare' when compiling Gnus with Emacs 21.
