Re: [O] [HELP} trying to figure out how to figure out?

Hi Matthew,

(defconst ...) defines a constant, i.e. a symbol which value
will not change.

What happens here is that org.el defines org-outline-regexp
as a constant, whereas some functions use org-outline-regexp
as a symbol for a temporary value (used in let constructs).

See for example the macro `org-with-limited-levels' in org-macs.el:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defmacro org-with-limited-levels (&rest body)
  "Execute BODY with limited number of outline levels."
  `(let* ((org-outline-regexp (org-get-limited-outline-regexp)))
     ,@body))
#+end_src emacs-lisp


The let* construct uses org-outline-regexp to store a temporary
value...  which 100% conflicts (!) with the idea of org-outline-regexp
being a constant.

Thanks for spotting at this!

I've just pushed this fix:

PS: some compilation warnings depend on the Emacs version you use,
it's always a good idea to tell what version of Emacs you use.
