Re: find-alternate-file: void dired-directory

[Markus Rost]

Now that has been fixed already, but in a different way, see below.

I think one can leave the current fix, although now
find-alternate-file will always set dired-directory with setq to nil,
without a defvar and a doc.

If you wish, I will install the autoload cookie anyway.  Otherwise
just forget about the topic and this mail.

       I am not sure how to fix this.  Defvar dired-directory in files.el?
       Autoload dired-directory?

   That is a good solution.  With an autoload cookie on that variable,
   it will always be defined.
