The return value of run-hook-with-args changed in emacs 24.  This is
apparently not a regression in emacs, since the documentation for the
function says "It is best not to depend on the value returned by
`run-hook-with-args', as that may change."  But bbdb does depend on
this return value, and fails because of the change.

A discussion about the topic can be found here:

The bug report that pointed out the problem in Fedora to me can be
found here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=835318

As I understand it, bbdb has to be modified slightly to work with
emacs 24.  For example in the way suggested by a patch in the bug
report.
