Thank you for pointing this out.  I forgot to do it when I
reported. I just rebuilt Guile Emacs and the problem were
solved.

OK, I extracted the source files of emacs-20.6.tar.gz in
guile-emacs/src.  It released me from creating a patch every
time but I feel the installation is still rather troublesome.

| 4. Recompile patched Emacs Lisp files:
| 
|   % emacs -q -batch -f batch-byte-recompile-directory lisp
|
| 5. Regenerate the configure script:
| 
|   % autoconf

How about preparing `autogen.sh' in the CVS to automate
these forgetful procedures?


| 7. Install the "emacs" subdirectory to somewhere:
| 
|   # cd ..
|   # mkdir /usr/local/share/emacs/scheme
|   # cp -r emacs /usr/local/share/emacs/scheme

Can it be done with `make install' as I proposed before?

Probably, it is good to distribute Guile Emacs as an
all-in-one package instead of patch files to emacs-20.6.
People may have difficulty in installation and give up.
