[Emacs-diffs] master a02ca7a: Simplify prog1 implementation

[Paul Eggert]

branch: master
commit a02ca7a231c3856efd57a502c6a73e6c251091e8
Author: Paul Eggert <address@hidden>
Commit: Paul Eggert <address@hidden>

    Simplify prog1 implementation
    
    Inspired by a suggestion from Chris Gregory in:
    http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2016-12/msg00965.html
    On my platform, this generates exactly the same machine insns.
    * src/eval.c (prog_ignore): Rename from unwind_body, since
    it’s more general than that.  All callers changed.
    (Fprog1): Simplify by using prog_ignore.
    (Fwhile): Clarify by using prog_ignore.
