Loading an output from prin1 (savehist bug).

[Michaël Cadilhac]

  I don't know how this bug can be worked around.

emacs -Q

(defun foo (marker)
  (interactive (list (make-marker))))

(defun bar (marker-list)
  (interactive (list (list (make-marker)))))

(defun baz (marker-vector)
  (interactive (list (make-vector 1 (make-marker)))))

(setq command-history nil)

Then M-x foo M-x bar M-x baz
Then C-h v command-history

> [...]
> Its value is 
> ((describe-variable 'command-history)
>  (baz
>   '[#<marker in no buffer>])
>  (bar
>   '(#<marker in no buffer>))
>  (foo '#<marker in no buffer>))
> [...]

  If some code output command-history with prin1 then try to load it
  back, the # things will cause parse errors.

  This bug occurs to me when I:
  - Use bbdb-create, and add a new buddy,
  - Quit Emacs and launch it again, with savehist-mode enabled.

  Regards.
