Re: Emacs Lisp: Problem with nested condition-case and catch in byte compiled code

[Greg Hill]

Stefan,

As you surmised, it turned out to be a bug in the interactive-p 
function, where it checks to see whether it is executing 
byte-compiled code.  I submitted a formal bug report, and Richard 
Stallman promptly sent me a patch that fixes the problem.  I assume 
that when he is entirely comfortable with it, he will make the patch 
generally available.
