+	* dumped-lisp.el (preloaded-file-list):
+	Dump make-coding-system.  Aidan's hack to avoid dumping this file
+	never really worked right -- with some configurations (not clear
+	exactly which ones) `make-coding-system.el' gets dumped anyway due to
+	calls to `make-coding-system' in unicode.el, with the result that
+	the documentation of functions in make-coding-system.el gets lost.
+
+	Also needed to remove defvar fixed-width-private-use-start and
+	incorporate it inline, due to bootstrapping issues -- the call to
+	decode-char introduced a cross-dependency between unicode.el and
+	make-coding-system.el.
