Subject: 24.0.91; mark-active
Date: Fri, 25 Nov 2011 14:15:12 +0000
The value of mark-active isn't always correct. (I first noticed this
when I typed `d' in a vc-log-view buffer and got the diff between the
revisions at point and mark, not the diff for the change at point.)

From `emacs -Q',

M-x transient-mark-mode <return>
=> Transient-Mark mode disabled

M-: mark-active <return>
=> nil

C-SPC
=> Mark set

M-: mark-active <return>
=> t
