bug#4450: 23.1; encoding error loading .elc locks file


From: David J. Biesack
Subject: bug#4450: 23.1; encoding error loading .elc locks file
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2009 11:07:44 -0400

I have .el files compiled in earlier versions of Emacs and
I get an error trying to load them in 23.1

  load-file: Invalid read syntax: "invalid multibyte form"

I try to recompile them, but I get an error:

  byte-compile-file: Removing old name: permission denied, 
c:/djb/emacs/filemenu.e

I must exit emacs to release the lock on the file, then
I can open and byte-compile the .el file and load the .elc

I've attached a copy of my existing filemenu.elc and filemenu.el
but this occurs on other .elc files as well.

In GNU Emacs 23.1.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
