There is, or at least used to be, a fair amount of bad old code that does stuff like that. One of the worst offenders was (not sure if it's been fixed) w3. I remember lots of bug reports where the problem was eventually revealed to be some package getting confused by w3's mucking around with the namespace. -Miles -- Yo mama's so fat when she gets on an elevator it HAS to go down. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
