Unbelievably, after sending this message, I was able to gain some
insight. smerge-ediff (smerge-mode.el) presumes that major modes can
always be invoked with no arguments, but generic-mode requires a mode
type. I can't understand why this is failing now, as that assumption
appears to be 5-6 years old. As a workaround I changed jam-mode.el to
do
(setq major-mode 'jam-mode) ;; workaround for strange emerge interaction
when jam-mode is initialized. But I can't tell if this is really the
"right" fix. Advice appreciated; thanks in advance.
