ok, the fix:
I commented out the section

===================================
;; ;; opens a a file 'pdf' with xpdf and so on...
;; (require 'extview)
;; (push '("\\.pdf$" . "xpdf %s") extview-application-associations)
;; (push '("\\.py$" . nil) extview-application-associations)
===================================
restarted emacs and I am now cpp compliant. no clue as to how to fix
the problem so that I can have the functionality provided by the
section above.
