* doc/lispref/variables.texi (Defining Variables)
(Using Lexical Binding):
* doc/lispref/compile.texi (Compiler Errors): Emphasize that omitting
VALUE for `defvar' marks the variable special only locally.
* doc/lispref/variables.texi (Using Lexical Binding): Add example of
using `defvar' without VALUE.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-tests/eieio-test-persist.el
(eieio-test-persist-hash-and-vector,
eieio-test-persist-interior-lists): Persistence does not currently
handle deeply-nested objects. Expect current failures, and mark for
future fixes.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-base.el (eieio-persistent-validate/fix-slot-value):
`object-write' may quote lists inside hash tables and vectors, so
unquote those lists here.
This patch allows the eieio-persistent write/restore process to
perform a clean round trip. It only handles a very specific and
limited range of object structures, but at least the write and read
procedures match.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-base.el (eieio-persistent-validate/fix-slot-value):
The function `eieio-persistent-slot-type-is-class-p' could return
either a single class, or a list of classes.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-tests/eieio-test-persist.el:
(hash-equal): New comparison test for hash-tables.
(persist-test-save-and-compare): Use test for hash-tables.
(eieio-test-persist-hash-and-vector,
eieio-test-persist-interior-lists): New tests.
* doc/lispref/variables.texi (Generalized Variables)
(Setting Generalized Variables): Define a generalized variable as something
setf can write to. Remove the insinuation that hackers have poor memories.
State explicitly that the list of GVs given is complete. Remove the
suggestion that `setf' has superseded, or is in the process of superseding,
`setq'. Make minor corrections to the English.

applies to Dired buffers as well. Suggested by Michael Albinus
<michael.albinus@gmx.de> in emacs-manual-bugs@gnu.org.

remote directories.
(Dired Enter): ls-lisp is used on some remote systems as well.
(Dired Navigation): Mention and index the command names.
(Dired Deletion): Document the 'always' value of
dired-recursive-deletes. Mention the alternative deletion method.
(Marks vs Flags): Fix spelling of Auto-Revert mode. Document what
marking does on a subdirectory header line.
(Operating on Files): Document that 'Z' uses gzip or compress.
(Comparison in Dired): Mention ediff-files.
(Misc Dired Features): Fix a typo. Suggested by Michael Albinus
<michael.albinus@gmx.de> in emacs-manual-bugs@gnu.org.
It highlights normal variable names in perl programs (Bug#30812).
* lisp/progmodes/perl-mode.el (perl-imenu-generic-expression)
(perl-font-lock-keywords-2): Restore values prior to Bug#27613 fix.
Don't merge to master, we will fix Bug#27613 properly there (it's too
close to release to do that on emacs-26).
Backport from master.
Problem reported by Ulrich Mueller; fix suggested by Eli Zaretskii
and Andreas Schwab (Bug#30855).
* src/alloc.c (mark_memory): Call mark_maybe_object only on
pointers that are properly aligned for Lisp_Object.
* doc/lispref/help.texi (Help Functions): Change variable name
to 'buffer-or-name'.
* lisp/help.el (with-help-window): Change variable name to
'buffer-or-name' and rewrite the doc string, adding reference

section is for local compilation buffers.
(Compilation, Compilation Mode): Mention that 'g' is bound to
'recompile' in compilation buffers.
(Grep Searching): Add a cross-reference to "Compilation Mode".
