Re: Pure strings (Re: Compilation to native)

[Richard Stallman]

    This error is raised on the string "Buffers" by the macro CHECK_IMPURE.

    Could someone explain why should this string be "impure"?

The problem occurs because the string is pure.  It looks like it
is pure because it comes from menu-bar-update-buffers,
which is in a preloaded file.

Does this patch fix it?
