Public bug reported:
Installing w3m-el creates file /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/w3m/attic
/regexp-opt.el . This file contains a buggy implementation of the
regexp-opt function. Invoking (regexp-opt nil) causes an infinite loop.
By contrast, in Emacs, (regexp-opt nil) returns nil.
It would be good to either remove w3m-el's version of regexp-opt.el, or
replace it by a newer version that handles the (regexp-opt nil) case in
the same way as Emacs does.
** Affects: w3m-el (Ubuntu)
