This patch produces the following text:
Determined by whether the first character of the documentation
for the variable is `*', the variable is customizable (has a non-nil
value of `standard-value' or of `custom-autoload' on its property list),
or it is a non-obsolete alias for another user variable.
Does anyone else think that this sentence is so confusing in its
structure as to be almost unparsable? (The old sentence was even less
clear.)
I believe that it is also incorrect. I believe that we decided that a
variable was customizable if either its docstring starts with `*' or
it is defined with defcustom.
Unless I misunderstood or misremember, we decided that `*' was no
lomger necessary for variables defined with defcustom.
Sincerely,
Luc.
