Bug Description

Binary package hint: a2ps

a2ps (1:4.14-1) [universe]
Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release: 8.04

When starting emacs (I am using emacs-snapshot from hardy universe), I get the following
error message in the *Messages* buffer:

Loading 00debian-vars...done
Loading /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50a2ps.el (source)...
Error while loading 50a2ps
Loading /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50cmake.el (source)...done

The third autoload in 50a2ps.el (which is a part of the a2ps package) is missing a quote character on a2ps-region.
I have attached a fix (50a2ps.patch). When the patch is applied, the error is gone:

Loading 00debian-vars...done
Loading /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50a2ps.el (source)...done
Loading /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50cmake.el (source)...done
