MH-E 7.95 released

Project home page at: http://mh-e.sourceforge.net/.

* Changes in MH-E 7.95

Version 7.95, the second 8.0 release candidate, fixes a single bug.
It would be good to check this version ASAP since the Emacs pretest is
coming in days: if no showstopper problems are found in this version
it will be promoted to 8.0 before the pretest. Thanks for your help!

** Bug Fixes in MH-E 7.95

*** Folder Completion Fails in fcc: Field

This has been fixed (closes SF #1476270).

I tried to test it, and have an odd problem.  I don't know
whether this is a core MH-E bug, or a bug relating to its
integration into emacs.  From the symptomps, perhaps something
wrong with the *.elc file, or the require/load mechanism.

What I was trying to do:
  Run   M-x mh-rmail   in a bare "emacs -q" session.

What I expected to happen:
  I expected to inc my mail.

What happened:
  When I run M-x mh-rmail, emacs beeps and complains:
      Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable mh-inc-spool-map)
  If I try again, a different error occurs:
      Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function mh-variant-p)
  If I try again and again, I keep getting the error about
  "void function mh-variant-p".

  My mail does not inc.

Background and other context:

  I can fix the problem if I explicitly (load "mh-e") before

This is very strange. Require should do the same thing as load. This is
probably the reason you're getting the problems above. What messages do
you get when you run `(require 'mh-e)'?

I'm not sure what to say. I ran make install and ran the installed
version of Emacs. `M-x mh-rmail' worked fine. `M-: (require 'mh-e)'
worked fine too. I think your installation is suspect. Check the output
of `make install' carefully and look for errors. Please try running
`$EMACS/src/emacs -Q -f mh-rmail'. Does that work for you?

Does `M-x emacs-version' look right? Does load-path have the right
directories? Does the directory *in your load-path to MH-E* look like
this?

    [wohler <at> olgas:916]$ cd /usr/local/share/emacs/22.0.50/lisp/mh-e
    [wohler <at> olgas:917]$ l mh-e.*
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 113059 2006-04-30 11:56 mh-e.elc
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root staff  35074 2006-04-28 18:22 mh-e.el.gz

Is anyone else running an installed version of CVS Emacs that can
confirm that MH-E is working for them?

Sigh, you are indeed right.

If I drastically simplify my build configuration, MH-E works fine.
So yes, this looks like a problem with my build system and options.

Thanks for the confirmation that things work fine for you,
