[xemacs-hg @ 2002-02-22 17:12:26 by michaels] 2002-02-11 Mike Sperber <mike@xemacs.org> * device-x.c: (x_IO_error_handler): (x_init_device): Temporarily keep device in static variable `device_being_initialized' so we can recover gracefully from internal XOpenDevice failure. (XOpenDevice is documented to return NULL on failure, but sometimes calls the IO error handler instead.)

This must be one of the symbols in MAIL-LOCK-METHODS.")
