There seems to be an inconsistancy in Gosling's emacs concerning
the mark data type.  Suppose at the end of a buffer the following
mlisp is executed:
	(set-mark)
	(setq x (mark))
If text is added (say as a result of a process execution), the mark
continues to point at the end of the buffer, but the value of x
does not.
