On the new startup and scratch buffer

[Angelo Graziosi]

Today, after a bootstrap of fresh CVS, I observe that the startup buffer 
is not loaded any more and the scratch buffer is *completely* empty.


Usually the scratch buffer contains (in red) this sentence:

============================================================
;; This buffer is for notes you don't want to save, and for Lisp evaluation.
;; If you want to create a file, visit that file with C-x C-f,
;; then enter the text in that file's own buffer.
============================================================

Is this the correct behaviour?

The behaviour of the startup screen is confirmed by this

-----------------------------------------------------------------
lisp/ChangeLog
[...]
          * desktop.el (after-init-hook): Set inhibit-startup-screen to
            t after reading the desktop.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

but I cannot find any reference to the new behaviour of scratch buffer.



Cheers,
   Angelo.
