Hi all, I just noticed this commit on emacs master branch: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/?id=2ec41c415f39990561cc9da4c9bad0b69bfad489 The commit touches these parts of org: Avoid add-to-list on local variables * lisp/org/org-archive.el (org-all-archive-files): * lisp/org/org-agenda.el (org-agenda-get-restriction-and-command): Avoid add-to-list on local variables. * lisp/org/ox-publish.el (org-publish--run-functions): New function. (org-publish-projects): Use it to avoid run-hooks on a local variable. (org-publish-cache-file-needs-publishing): Avoid add-to-list on local variables. So I believe that these changes should be back-ported into the master branch of org too? -- Kaushal Modi
