Subject: 24.2;
	utf-8 codepoints in doc-strings and compression of .el and .elc files
Date: Sun, 07 Oct 2012 19:44:32 +0200

In GNU Emacs 24.2.1 (i686-suse-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.4.4)
 of 2012-09-30 on Rainer

I've just removed some utf-8 codepoints from docstrings in org-mode
because when I compress either the source (.el.gz) or the resulting
byte-compiled file (.elc.gz), the loader fails after the first function
definition that has such a docstring.  Messages suspiciously said
something about "loading with code-conversion", so I assume that the the
coding-system was not correctly recognized and the file mangled as a
result before it reached the loader.


Regards,
Achim.
