Subject: bug#24309: 25.1; Problem in variable reference in docstrings.
Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2016 01:07:06 +0200

This bug applies to both the version given in the description
(i.e. 25.1-RC2) and version 24.5 distributed on fedora.

These are the steps to reproduce the bug:

- Start Emacs with “emacs -Q”.
- evaluate these forms:
  (defvar var "var" "docstring of var")
  (defvar var* "var*" "docstring of var*")
  (defvar *var "*var" "docstring of *var")
  (defvar *var* "*var*" "docstring of *var*")

  (defun fun0 () "see variable ‘var’." var)
  (defun fun1 () "see var*iable ‘var*’." var*)
  (defun fun2 () "see *variable ‘*var’." *var)
  (defun fun3 () "see *var*iable ‘*var*’." *var*)
- See the docstrings of the defined functions.  For fun0 and fun1 the
  reference to the variable is correct, for fun2 and fun3 they are not.
