Kai: I think I've figured out what problem my solution was actually fixing. Initially, I was having some problems with subtract-time that seem to have disappeared. I recently upgraded some packages so maybe that fixed it (I had an APEL package, in particular, that was installed incorrectly). However, occasionally when I'm trying to open a directory remotely in a dired buffer with tramp, itimer will fail with a message. Something like: itimer: "<itimer -1>" (nocatch nil). So, I went back to my fix for the subtract-time problem and it also fixes the itimer problem. That was the part of the story that I was forgetting when I brought this up last month.
