Problems compiling CVS Gnus with Emacs 21.3

Problems compiling CVS Gnus with Emacs 21.3

[Jorge Godoy]

Hi!


I've just updated from Emacs 21.2 to Emacs 21.3 and while compiling
CVS Gnus I got these error messages:

As you can see, Gnus is working fine besides all those
errors/warnings. 

I hope this helps someone to understand what Emacs is refusing.

This same CVS Gnus compiled just fine in Emacs 21.2 two hours ago. 


See you,

They are (harmless) bugs in the Emacs 21.3 byte-compiler.  It's fixed
in Emacs CVS.
