Hello.
After compiling and installing the pretest, included Emacs Lisp source
files, of which some are installed *gzipped* by the `install' Makefile
target, I just regenerated the TAGS file with

etags `find -name \*.el` `find -name \*.el.gz`

from the appropriate directory.

When looking for a symbol with M-. Emacs fails to find the source file
because it tries to open a non-existing *uncompressed* version.
Try with goto-line, for example.

Now, I hadn't noticed whether this also happened previously, but this is
definitely not the behavior one would expect. Should I report it as a bug?
I wrote here first to avoid bothering the emacs-devel people with noise,
just in case.

Thanks,
