Interpreted closures currently just grab a reference to the complete
lexical environment, so (lambda (x) (+ x y)) can end up looking like
(closure ((foo ...) (y 7) (bar ...) ...)
(x) (+ x y))
where the foo/bar/... bindings are not only useless but can prevent
the GC from collecting that memory (i.e. it's a representation that is
not "safe for space") and it can also make that closure "unwritable"
(or more specifically, it can cause the closure's print
representation to be u`read`able).
Compiled closures don't suffer from this problem because `cconv.el`
actually looks at the code and only stores in the compiled closure
those variables which are actually used.
So, we fix this discrepancy by letting the existing code in `cconv.el` tell
`Ffunction` which variables are actually used by the body of the
function such that it can filter out the irrelevant elements and
return a closure of the form:
(closure ((y 7)) (x) (+ x y))
* lisp/loadup.el: Preload `cconv` and set
`internal-filter-closure-env-function` once we have a usable `cconv-fv`.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el (byte-compile-preprocess): Adjust to new
calling convention of `cconv-closure-convert`.
(byte-compile-not-lexical-var-p): Delete function, moved to `cconv.el`.
(byte-compile-bind): Use `cconv--not-lexical-var-p`.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cconv.el (cconv--dynbound-variables): New var.
(cconv-closure-convert): New arg `dynbound-vars`
(cconv--warn-unused-msg): Remove special case for `ignored`,
so we don't get confused when a function uses an argument called
`ignored`, e.g. holding a list of things that it should ignore.
(cconv--not-lexical-var-p): New function, moved from `bytecomp.el`.
Don't special case keywords and `nil` and `t` since they are already
`special-variable-p`.
(cconv--analyze-function): Use `cconv--not-lexical-var-p`.
(cconv--dynbindings): New dynbound var.
(cconv-analyze-form): Use `cconv--not-lexical-var-p`.
Remember in `cconv--dynbindings` the vars for which we used
dynamic scoping.
(cconv-analyze-form): Use `cconv--dynbound-variables` rather than
`byte-compile-bound-variables`.
(cconv-fv): New function.
* src/eval.c (Fsetq, eval_sub): Remove optimization designed when
`lexical-binding == nil` was the common case.
(Ffunction): Use `internal-filter-closure-env-function` when available.
(eval_sub, Ffuncall): Improve error info for `excessive_lisp_nesting`.
(internal-filter-closure-env-function): New defvar.
* doc/lispref/lists.texi (Plist Access): Improve description of
default predicate.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-extra.el (cl-getf, cl--set-getf): Assume
plist-member always returns a cons.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/gv.el (plist-get): Support new optional predicate
argument (bug#47425#91).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/map.el: Bump minor version.
(map--dispatch): Remove now that bug#58563 is fixed. Break two
remaining uses out into corresponding cl-defmethods.
(map--plist-p): Add docstring.

(map--plist-put-1, map--plist-put): New definitions for supporting
predicate argument backward compatibly.
(map-elt): Fix generalized variable getter under a
predicate (bug#58531). Use predicate when given a plist.
(map-put): Avoid gratuitous warnings when called without the hidden
predicate argument. Improve obsoletion message.
(map-put!): Use predicate when given a plist.
(map-contains-key): Ditto. Declare forgotten
advertised-calling-convention (bug#58531#19).
(map--put): Group definition in file together with that of map-put!.
* lisp/files-x.el (connection-local-normalize-criteria): Simplify
using mapcan + plist-get.
* lisp/net/eudc.el (eudc--plist-member): New convenience function.
(eudc-plist-member, eudc-plist-get, eudc-lax-plist-get): Use it
instead of open-coding plist-member.
* src/fns.c (Fplist_get, plist_get, Fplist_put, plist_put): Pass the
plist element as the first argument to the predicate, for
consistency with assoc + alist-get.
(Fplist_member, plist_member): Move from widget to plist section.
Open-code the EQ case in plist_member, and call it from
Fplist_member in that case, rather than the other way around.
* test/lisp/apropos-tests.el (apropos-tests-format-plist): Avoid
polluting obarray.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-extra-tests.el (cl-getf): Extend test with
generalized variables, degenerate plists, and improper lists.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/gv-tests.el: Byte-compile file; in the
meantime bug#24402 seems to have been fixed or worked around.
(gv-setter-edebug): Inhibit printing messages.
(gv-plist-get): Avoid modifying constant literals. Also test with a
predicate argument.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/map-tests.el (with-maps-do): Simplify
docstring.
(test-map-elt-testfn): Rename...
(test-map-elt-testfn-alist): ...to this. Also test with a predicate
argument.

* test/lisp/net/eudc-tests.el: New file.
* test/lisp/subr-tests.el (test-plistp): Extend test with circular
list.
* test/src/fns-tests.el (test-cycle-equal, test-cycle-nconc): Move
from plist section to circular list section.
(plist-put/odd-number-of-elements): Avoid modifying constant
literals.
(plist-member/improper-list): Simplify.

argument.

Ref. https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2022-09/msg01875.html
C23 is adding the C++ keywords bool, true, and false;
prefer them to <stdbool.h> if they are available.
* admin/merge-gnulib (GNULIB_MODULES):
Add stdbool, which emulates C23 on pre-C23 platforms.
(AVOIDED_MODULES): Remove stdbool; Gnulib has renamed
this module to stdbool-c99 and nobody uses it so it does
not need to be avoided.
* m4/c-bool.m4: New file, from Gnulib stdbool module.
* lib-src/seccomp-filter.c, src/conf_post.h, src/dynlib.h:
* src/emacs-module.c, src/nsterm.m, src/systhread.h:
* test/src/emacs-module-resources/mod-test.c:
Use the C23 style and use bool without including <stdbool.h>.
The Gnulib stdbool module causes config.h to include stdbool.h
on pre-C23 platforms.
* src/emacs-module.h.in:
Don’t include <stdbool.h> if C23 or later, or if
it has already been included.
