bug#12396: 24.2.50; [PATCH] extend usability of gnus-read-ephemeral-emac


From: Stephen Berman
Subject: bug#12396: 24.2.50; [PATCH] extend usability of gnus-read-ephemeral-emacs-bug-group
Date: Mon, 10 Sep 2012 23:02:18 +0200
User-agent: Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/24.2.50 (gnu/linux)

I discovered that the definition of gnus-get-emacs-bug-number in my
patch was deficient, so, in hopes that this feature may still make it
into Emacs, here is an improved definition (though the bit about bug
number 0 is probably dispensible).  I'll be happy to provide an updated
patch if desired.
