Subject: [PATCH] emacs: Don't record undo information for search or show
	buffers.
Date: Sun, 20 Nov 2011 20:00:55 -0500
Message-Id: <1321837255-8669-1-git-send-email-amdragon@mit.edu>
Precedence: list

There's no reason to record undo information for read-only,
programmatically-constructed buffers.  The undo list just chews up
memory keeping track of our calls to insert.
