Not sure why you guys are saying this works in 24.3, because I only
fixed this in trunk semi-recently:

http://debbugs.gnu.org/13930

Ie, this should be fixed in 24.4.
Of course, "refuses to do anything useful" is very vague, so I have no
way to test whatever the OP was seeing works now.

PS it's not a good idea to omit the OP from replies.
