Meep. I don't know how to go about setting up an environment for this.
Could you tell me of a step-by-step way to reproduce your bug starting

Rewritten for clarity in * committed
address@hidden/planner--dev--1.0--patch-40 . Thanks for the
feedback!

It's defined here in CVS Emacs in files.el. The documentation for
