No, I did not realize that this is what was indeed meant.

I must admit I don't understand the above macro,
but what I was getting at before was:

It only appears defined for Emacs < 23.2,
So in particular, 23.1.50 is 'stuck' in
between these two version checks, and maybe
that's causing Antti's issue?

Works for me fine on Emacs 23.2, we will see
if it does for Antti also.
