Subject: bug#8966: 24.0.50; Strange message in the echo area after creating a new file
Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2011 18:12:51 +0200

Package: emacs
Version: 24.0.50

From "emacs -Q", eval (find-file "<path-to-new-file>"), where
<path-to-new-file> denotes the name (with path) of a nonexistent file
(which we are creating right now).

After doing that, the echo area shows "#<buffer <path-to-new-file>>",
but it should show "(New file)", as when you do the same interactively
with C-x C-f.


In GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2011-06-27 on 3249CTO
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600
configured using `configure --with-gcc (4.5) --no-opt --cflags
