Ah, thanks for elaborating.  So let's keep what we have for now.

Hello,

after reading the gv.el code, AFAICT the `gv-setter' declaration form
for `defun' accepts a second optional arg FIX-RETURN (that is actually
useful).

Can you confirm, Stefan?  Then we should adopt the info node mentioned
in the subject accordingly, I think.


Regards,

Michael.
