Please try and follow `emacs-24' instead of `trunk' until Emacs-24.4 is
released, to help us find bugs in that code.

In `ediff-set-fine-diff-properties-in-one-buffer', dolist is invoked
on the result of `ediff-get-fine-diff-vector', but it is a vector, not a
list. Thus, navigating to a difference region in Ediff  fails with an
error like this:

ediff-set-fine-diff-properties: Wrong type argument: listp, [#<overlay
from 280 to 280 in xxx.xxx.~18146~> #<overlay from 297 to 297 in
xxx.xxx.~18146~>]

It looks like this was introduced in Emacs revision number 116811.1.123.
