Subject: 23.2; flymake (php) error
Date: Thu, 02 Dec 2010 15:49:54 +0100

recipe:
emacs 23.2.1 for windows (win7)
php 5.3.1 (cli)
open a php-file in emacs with no errors. (for example: <?php echo
'hello World';)
start flymake-mode
--> error messages

error messages that occur:
error in process filter: string-match: Wrong type argument: listp, absoft
error in process filter: Wrong type argument: listp, absoft

problem:
flymake-err-line-patterns is a list of
(regexp file-idx line-idx col-idx err-text-idx)
and gets compilation-error-regexp-alist appended, which (in 23.2.1) is a
list of
softwarename
which does not match the pattern of flymake-err-line-patterns

this is a problem because php 5.3.1 cli echos "No syntax errors detected in
[filename]" which does not match any of the proper patterns (because
it's not even an error) but will finally meet "absoft", the first
softwarename in compilation-error-regexp-alist.

my temporary solution:
commenting out compilation-error-regexp-alist (unsatisfying solution)

I already posted a bug report on flymakes sourceforge page
(https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=77501&atid=550421 - id
3125528), but I don't expect it to get edited there. And this bug got
introduced by a new emacs version, which includes flymake but changed
the underlying variable

AFAICS, flymake-err-line-patterns hasn't included
compilation-error-regexp-alist since late 2004.

Looks like you might have been using your own version of flymake.el?
