In Ubuntu 14.04 and Mac OS X 10.9.3, nlinum 1.4 causes a debugger error
on Emacs launch, when the following configuration setting is used.
~/.emacs:
(require 'nlinum)
(global-nlinum-mode)
The bug does not occur in windowed (GUI) mode, but appears quite
visciously in ncurses (CLI) mode.
In Mac OS X, the resulting debugger message looks like:
$ emacs -nw
"Warning (initialization): An error occurred while loading `/Users/andrew/.emacs':
error: OpenStep is not in use or not initialized
To ensure normal operation, you should investigate and remove the
cause of the error in your initialization file. Start Emacs with
the `--debug-init' option to view a complete error backtrace."
What's more, after this message appears, C-x C-c is no longer accepted
as a valid hotkey for quitting Emacs to the shell. As a workaround, I'm
currently closing the terminal tab/window and launching new ones.
