The following thread details all I can remember (I don't remember
where the call originated, but I think it was message mail abbrev
expansion).

Unless define-abbrev has changed its signature since 21.2.1, I found a
bug in mailabbrev.el, which I fixed with this patch:

*** mailabbrev.el.~1.71.~	Sun Jan 12 15:48:49 2003
--- mailabbrev.el	Sat Feb  8 21:39:43 2003

    !     (define-abbrev mail-abbrevs name definition 'mail-abbrev-expand-hook 0 t)))

That looks correct to me.  define-abbrev takes 6 args and this seems
to pass them all correctly.  Why do you think it is wrong?

Anly because it gave me an error when I replaced my 21.2.1 elisp/mail
folder with the CVS... I realize it's undisciplined, but you know how
GNUs users are; we always want something that's not supported in the
release ;-).
