bug#2144: 23.0.60; find-grep reports nonsense when interrupted

Hello!

When I let find-grep search for a pattern *and* it has already found  
and listed some in *grep* buffer and I then kill the process with C-c  
C-k, find-grep reports "[no match]" in mode-line. The buffer contains  
at the end:

	Grep finished with no matches found at <some date>

This is almost true ...

Greetings

bug#2145: 23.0.90; S-SPC should scroll up in view-only buffers

(This should be filed as "wishlist")

Summary:

S-SPC should scroll up in view-only buffers, such as info, gnus
messages and buffers in view-mode; currently it scrolls down.

Rationale:

Most other programs that display more than a screenful of information
(Firefox, various mail clients, the evince pdf viewer, ...) use SPC to
scroll down and S-SPC (Shift-Space) to scroll up.  Emacs uses SPC (and
S-SPC) to scroll down and <backspace> to scroll up.  Additionally, in
some programs, Backspace is bound to some deleting action (in my email
reader, it moves the current message to Trash).  Paging up and down
through stuff thus requires me to be careful about which program I'm
in; I've accidentally deleted emails after reading too much stuff in
emacs.

Workarounds:

Putting the appropriate define-key forms, e.g.

(define-key view-mode-map (kbd "S-SPC") 'View-scroll-page-backward)
(define-key Info-mode-map (kbd "S-SPC") 'Info-scroll-down)

in the user's init file.

bug#2146: nextstep lacking INSTALL or README

There is no file README or INSTALL in the nextstep directory in the just released emacs-23.0.90 pretest version.  Following the instructions from the previous CVS versions, the nextstep version of emacs does install and startup without problems for me on an Apple iMac.

bug#2151: 23.0.90; Building the 23.0.90 pretest recompiles Lisp files

Building the pretest recompiles many Lisp files, which it shouldn't IMO.

Looking at the Makefile's, I think the problem is in this snippet from
src/Makefile.in (near the end):

  /* Since the .el.elc rule cannot specify an extra dependency, we do it here.  */
  ${lisp} ${SOME_MACHINE_LISP}: $(BOOTSTRAPEMACS)

  ${lispsource}loaddefs.el: $(BOOTSTRAPEMACS)
	  cd ../lisp; $(MAKE) $(MFLAGS) autoloads EMACS=../src/bootstrap-emacs${EXEEXT}

  /* Dump an Emacs executable named bootstrap-emacs containing the
     files from loadup.el in source form.  */

  bootstrap-emacs${EXEEXT}: temacs${EXEEXT}
	  cd ../lisp; $(MAKE) $(MFLAGS) update-subdirs
  #ifdef CANNOT_DUMP
	  ln -f temacs${EXEEXT} bootstrap-emacs${EXEEXT}
  #else
	  $(RUN_TEMACS) --batch --load loadup bootstrap
	  mv -f emacs${EXEEXT} bootstrap-emacs${EXEEXT}
  #endif /* ! defined (CANNOT_DUMP) */
	   <at> : Compile some files earlier to speed up further compilation.
	  cd ../lisp; $(MAKE) $(MFLAGS) compile-first EMACS=../src/bootstrap-emacs${EXEEXT}

It goes like this: since temacs is built, the last rule says to
produce bootstrap-emacs${EXEEXT}.  The new bootstrap-emacs then
triggers the 2 rules before it, which rebuild loaddefs.el and
recompile the Lisp files in ${lisp} and ${SOME_MACHINE_LISP}.

bug#2149: 23.0.60; docview set slice when avoidance mode active

Selecting from menu-bar > DocView > Set Slice ;;;doc-view-set-slice-using-mouse
I am unable to freely move the mouse over the doc to set x & y for slice.
Mouse keeps jumping back to the right fringe per avoidance settings.
*BUT* if i move across the top of the menubar and/or *very* rapidly
move the mouse to left fringe I can get a few moments of mouse trigger
time before mouse re-banishes to right.

This is not intuitive behavior. If possible, when avoidance mode is
active the menu option should not be available and/or avoidance should
be temporarily overidden when doc-view-set-slice-using-mouse has been
invoked.

bug#2156: 23.0.90; Failed to convert from Babyl to mbox

Encouraged by some experiments I thought I would make the major change.
However it failed.

This is run with -q and loaded one of my smaller mail files in Babyl
format. The file is called ~/MAIL/c-m-r It starts well, creates the
temporary file and starts to write to it, until I get the message that
it failed to find ",,"

This is repeatable and also happens on other mail files.  I will try
again with the debugger enabled.
