>> So the question is why loading mule-util.el produces this error?
> Because skkdic-convert binds coding-system-for-read to euc-japan.
>
> $ ../src/bootstrap-emacs -batch --eval "(let ((coding-system-for-read
> 'euc-japan)) (require 'mule-util))"
> Invalid read syntax: "?"

Does the patch below address the issue?
