Okay done, please have a look as usual.

Also, we have a warning now on master because lisp/ldefs-boot.el needs
to be regenerated.  I did run admin/update_autogen but the diff is a
little bigger then I expected (is not only related to the introduced
function).  Should I commit this? Do we have another way to regenerate
ldefs-boot.el we typically use?

Thanks

  Andrea
