Yes, it does. (Otherwise I'd have mentioned it.) I suppose it is
nevertheless a bug and not just a missing feature, because: if edebug
encounters a macro about which it has no information, it normally just
jumps over the entire macro body while silently macroexpanding it. For
instance:
(defmacro my-do-vector (var vect &rest body)
(let ((i (make-symbol "i"))
(len (make-symbol "len"))
(v (make-symbol "v")))
`(let* ((,i 0)
(,v ,vect)
(,len (length ,vect)))
(while (< ,i ,len)
(setq ,var (aref ,v ,i)
,i (1+ ,i))
,@body))))
(defun my-test ()
(my-do-vector e [alpha beta gamma]
(print e)))
No error here, when edebugging `my-test'. Though, edebug does not step
through the loop in the `my-do-vector' expression, either.
IIRC, it is possible to advise `edebug' about what to do with such
macros. I suppose, the described bug with `labels' happens, because
edebug actually tries to DTRT, but fails.
I have not checked yet, whether this bug might be more general; for
instance, it could be a bug in said advice mechanism.
