I think this qualifies as history :-) At least for me personally, the
last 12 years feel like a lifetime.
It is significant that so far the report has not been ported forward to
a newer emacs version (as it had been previously from 21 to 24). I have
no newer version installed so I cannot check but I bet the bug is still
present. Maybe someone else on the list can check?
