Subject: [PATCH] electric-tests can no longer by byte compiled

As much as I enjoy this scut work, I'm happy for patch authors to
validate changes via a self-administered testing system.  So-called
CI (continuous integration) systems require a paradigm shift from
Wall-esque patches to branch-based schemes, however.

While such a shift could appear daunting, all that is really required
is an email from leadership to start submitting changesets to Github
or Gitlab.  The leveraging of nonfree infrastructure, while at odds
with GNU dogma, would be as salutary and expeditious as a flat-earther
resigning himself to a modern vaccine.

Isn't that the bug, though?  We've been trying to find out why.

Please stop writing this snide and sneering commentary, as you have done
in many recent messages. 

Whatever your views are on the philosophy, code base or working style
of the project, a commit message is not the right place for that.

Please learn to communicate in a less unpleasant style.

I've been tinkering with this and I *think* the issue is with the hook I 
added at global scope:

  (add-hook 'c-mode-hook (lambda () (c-toggle-comment-style -1)))

In the attached patch, I moved this into a fixture function for the 
`whitespace-chomping-dont-cross-comments' test and it works for me (i.e. 
electric-tests pass both with and without byte-compilation). Hopefully 
this resolves the issue, though I'm unclear on *why* this was occurring 
in the first place; maybe there's a bug in the byte-compiler...?

(As an aside, I vaguely recall adding that hook at global scope because 
multiple tests failed without it, but it was a while since I wrote that 
patch and I may be misremembering. In any case, it seems that at least 
today, changing the comment style is only needed for that one test, so I 
think it makes sense to do it in a fixture solely for that test.)

In general, doing an add-hook with a non-symbol function isn't
supported -- it may end up adding the function more than once if it
first loads the uncompiled file, and then loads the compiled file, I
think?  (Because the lambda will have been turned into a byte-code
object.)  So it seems logical that inhibiting byte compilation also made
the problem go away.

Anyway, your patch is the right fix here, so I've pushed it to Emacs 29
now.

Seems to work for me too here.
