Can you send us a diff against trunk? I know you're busy with school  
work,
but I'm eager to see what you've been up to. I'm not expecting it to be
completely polished and ready to check in, so if it's still got rough
edges that's OK.

What's failing in elisp? Maybe one of us can look at your diff and spot
the problem while you're writing your exams.
