Okay.  With the minor changes I'm making in vhdl-mode nowadays I don't  
care that much about compatibility anymore either.

Alright.  I will check out the code you come up with and let you know  
the things I don't like.  In the past there were changes done in the  
Emacs version that I didn't like or didn't understand and therefore I  
didn't bother to keep my copy in sync.  I will try harder now!

BTW, I was a heavy user of the (now deprecated) assoc package and  
didn't find a suitable replacement.  So I just copied the relevant  
functions into vhdl-mode.  If you have a better solution, let me know.
