Thanks, I fixed this in a slightly different way on the emacs-29 branch. > If that's rejected as passive, an alternative is "Byte compile the file > the current buffer is visiting.", though that sounds more awkward to me > than "visited by" (note "the file visited by the current buffer" occurs > several times in the Emacs and Elisp manuals, and I have found no other > use of (variants of) "file containing the current buffer" in the Emacs > sources). My change avoids the passive voice. Closing.
