Re: CC-mode conflict with lucid.el

[Richard Stallman]

    I regard this as a bug in lucid.el. If the function exists then CC
    Mode only uses it under the assumption that it works like in XEmacs,
    not that CC Mode runs in XEmacs. The lucid package also defines it
    with the goal that it should work as in XEmacs, which apparently isn't
    the case.

Could you possibly fix buffer-syntactic-context to work as in XEmacs?
That is the intention, but I don't know where the discrepancy is.

    Haven't investigated that, but it looks like a problem in syntax-ppss
    in syntax.el.

Stefan Monnier has worked on that--he can probably help here
