Firstly the reply is out of its context of version information, and
secondly I was reporting an experimental datum concerning cc-langs
which was explicitly confirmed by someone else with more detail.

Maybe it doesn't _now_ -- I haven't checked.  It did.

Because I don't.  This is invention.  If I made a mistake, I would
apologize for the confusion.  (Look at the subject of this thread if
you think I wasn't complaining about cl.)

  (require 'cc-mode) is enough to get
  
  (featurep 'cl)
    => t

was inaccurate how, exactly?  Anyhow, you should take up the matter
with eliz too if you're only concerned with cc-langs.  See
<address@hidden>.  He actually noticed a
relevant message I didn't.

Please don't do a disservice to Emacs by taking this sort of insulting
line with people making proper bug reports.  I know _from long
maintenance experience_ that it's difficult enough to get them in the
first place.
