The bug it fixed is the one where customizing font-lock-mode would add in
your .emacs a custom setting that requires font-core which of course breaks
when the same .emacs is read with some older Emacs.

AFAIK Michael's problem should be fixed by Luc Van Eycken
<address@hidden>'s patch.  I thought it had been installed
already, but it seems like that's not the case.  I'll do that now.
