As mentioned in another recent post, this was a bug the Emacs
developers added to IDLWAVE in their shipped version. Fall back to
any older version to avoid.

Yes, but didn't this happen in Emacs 23.2. Stevie says he is using
22.2.1.

Any word on when a new version of idlwave will be availible that will
work correctly in 23.2. The pretest for Emacs 23.3 (bug fix release)
will start next week so if you have anything ready you could get it in
that release.
