Subject: CC Mode 5.33 (C++/l); `c-mode-base-map' has no parent keymap
Date: Wed, 30 Mar 2016 22:51:15 -0700

While all the modes defined in cc-mode.el derive from `prog-mode', their
keymaps do not derive from `prog-mode-map'. Their definitions do not
trigger the call to `set-keymap-parent' that `define-derived-mode'
usually does automatically.

This can be fixed by adding a call to set-keymap-parent right after
c-mode-base-map gets set to a sparse map, but a more complicated fix
is probably needed if you care about xemacs compatibility (and
`c-make-inherited-keymap' implies that you do).

See http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=14504 for another case
where this happened in `emacs-lisp-mode'.
