Subject: bug#23947: Regression in EIEIO
Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2016 13:27:50 -0400

Package: Emacs
Version: 25.0.95


I finally tracked down why GNU ELPA's "rudel" package wasn't working
with Emacs-25, and it turns out to be a combination of two bugs
in the new EIEIO code.

Rudel seems to be the heaviest user of EIEIO so far (e.g. the only user
of the :c3 method invocation order, since the eieio-core code had
a plain bug which made it signal an error whenever that was used).

The patch below lets Rudel setup a shared buffer, so at least the core
functionality now works.  To my eyes, this is a very safe patch which
just fixes an incompatibility and an error I introduced in the new EIEIO
code when moving to cl-generic, so I think it should go to emacs-25.

Any objection?

	* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-compat.el (eieio--defmethod): Better obey
	EIEIO's `no-applicable-method' calling convention.
	* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-core.el (eieio--class-precedence-c3): `class'
	is not a symbol but a class object.
