Subject: 23.2; find-lisp-object-file-name doc incorrect
Date: Tue, 22 Jun 2010 18:01:21 +0100

The doc-string of find-lisp-object-file-name regarding TYPE is
incorrect. The code says defvar or defface but the doc-string says
variable or face, one of which should be fixed. The attached patch fixes
the code.

cheers -- Leo
