; "AppStream tools scan the /usr/share/appdata/ path for legacy
; compatibility as well.  It should not be used anymore by new
; software though, even on older Linux distributions (like RHEL 7
; and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS) the metainfo path is well supported.  Support
; for the legacy path might be dropped completely in future."

not let-bind `rfn-eshadow-overlay', assign it directly (due to
lexical binding).  (Bug#32550)

FRAME has no outer X window; return nil instead.  (Bug#32615)

* lisp/calc/calc-cplx.el (math-imaginary-i): Check for a value
of (polar 1 <quarter-circle>).

* build-aux/git-hooks/pre-commit: If GIT_MERGE_CHECK_OTHER is 'true',
check changes against the merge target, rather than the current
branch.  Include file name when giving error message about
non-standard characters.

* src/xdisp.c (maybe_produce_line_number): Don't produce line
numbers if we don't have enough screen estate.  (Bug#32351)

* src/eval.c (Fdefvar): Don't call XSYMBOL on something that
might not be a symbol.  This avoids crashes due to malformed
'defvar' forms.  (Bug#32552)

* lisp/emacs-lisp/checkdoc.el (checkdoc-this-string-valid-engine):
Fix quoting thinko.

* src/emacs-module.c (module_free_global_ref): Compare a value to be

(w32con_clear_end_of_line): If the line is wider than the

'glyphs' to support the full width of the frame.  This
avoids segfaults when the frame is wider than 256 columns.
(Bug#32445)

* lisp/files-x.el (modify-file-local-variable-prop-line): Handle
whitespace when checking if there's already a ';' before the

instead of "change log", to avoid the interpretation that we

alias for UTF-8.

Problem reported by Eli Zaretskii in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2018-08/msg00380.html
* src/data.c (arithcompare): Work around incompatibility
between gcc -fexcess-precision=fast and the C standard on x86,
by capturing the results of floating-point comparisons before
the excess precision spontaneously decays.  Although this fix
might not work in general, it does work here and is probably
good enough for the platforms we care about.

(cherry picked from commit a84cef90)

* test/src/data-tests.el (data-tests--float-greater-than-fixnums):
New constant.
(data-tests-=, data-tests-<, data-tests->, data-tests-<=)
(data-tests->=, data-tests-min): Use it.

Toggle the locked status in marked buffers or the buffer
at point (Bug#32421).
* lisp/ibuffer.el (ibuffer-do-toggle-lock): New command.
(ibuffer-mode-map): Bind it to 'L'.
(ibuffer-mode-operate-map): Add entries for
`ibuffer-do-toggle-read-only' and `ibuffer-do-toggle-lock'.

Announce the change.

* lisp/ibuffer.el (filename-and-process): Store the process buffer
as a text property; check for such property to detect a buffer
with a process (Bug#32420).

(shadow-test06-literal-groups, shadow-test07-regexp-groups)
(shadow-test08-shadow-todo, shadow-test09-shadow-copy-files):
Use `set-visited-file-name' instead of setting the value in
`buffer-file-name' directly.
(shadow-test08-shadow-todo, shadow-test09-shadow-copy-files):
Test for writable temporary directory.  Suppress errors in
cleanup.  (Bug#32226)
