Logged In: YES user_id=12800 Attached is a patch that fixes the problem, which was due to the ubiquitous "open-paren in column 0" bug/limitation in XEmacs. This simply removes the XEmacs-specific buffer-syntactic-context call in favor of using the slower parse-partial-sexp call. Computers are a lot faster now, so I think we can get away with just parsing the world. ;) I'm going to test this for a few days before I commit it.
