There are still problems (but none that should delay the release! :).
In dabbrev--substitute-expansion `(search-backward old)' might find
the wrong place after the whichspace has been converted.
Consider a buffer containing the text
"1 2 3 "
(that is 1 SPC SPC 2 SPC SPC SPC 3 SPC)
Then at the end of the buffer, type 1 SPC SPC M-/ SPC M-/.
The buffer now contains
"1 2 3 1 2 3" (with the patch there is one space less before the 3)
Press M-/ again:
"1 2 2 1 2 3"
^
point
Here OLD is " 3", and so `search-backward' moves too far.
BTW, I wonder what kind of situation "Start searching at end of ABBREV
so that any whitespace carried over from the existing text is not
changed" refers to.
