bug#9090: 24.0.50; void-variable jka-compr-verbose

[lee]

This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org.  Please check that
the From: line contains a valid email address.  After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgement at that address.

Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':



When starting emacs, I'm getting a warning "Warning: defvar ignored
because jka-compr-verbose is let-bound".  This leads to errors when
dealing with compressed files and gives backtraces like:

,----
| Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable jka-compr-verbose)
|   jka-compr-insert-file-contents("/home/lee/tmp/emacs-backtrace.txt.gz" t nil 
nil nil)

|   jka-compr-handler(insert-file-contents

|   find-file("~/tmp/emacs-backtrace.txt.gz" t)
|   call-interactively(find-file nil nil)
`----

As a work-around, I've put (setq jka-compr-verbose t) into my ~/.emacs.



If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
