times can be wrong

I've noticed that sometimes the reported times are incorrect. For example today I filed a bug. bugmotodo says it was changed "3 days ago" -- but that can't be, the...

It would be quite nice if bugs in the "to check in" panel also showed a brief summary of the status of any try push for the bug. In particular...

I have one bug that is closed, but which I recently (post closing) marked as "a?" to get uplift approval. It would be nice if, in this case, the "to...

Consider if `json--decode-utf16-surrogates` checked the input types: ``` (defun json--decode-utf-16-surrogates (high low) "Return the code point represented by the UTF-16 surrogates HIGH and LOW." (cl-check-type high integer) (cl-check-type low integer)...

I tried compiling `json--plist-reverse`. The compiler doesn't initialize a variable near the top. ``` BB_0: res_219 = Qnil; if (!NILP (plist_220)) { goto BB_3; } ``` Here `plist_220` should be...

The `null` function could be compiled to `NILP(x) ? Qt : Qnil`. Commented out in c-inl.el

The into-ssa pass is pretty bad. Maybe this paper could be used to make it better: http://compilers.cs.uni-saarland.de/papers/bbhlmz13cc.pdf

mark some macros as "lexical catch"

We can completely eliminate a `catch` if it is "lexical". `cl-return` and `cl-return-from` could be handled this way.
