@Katsumi: I don't see anything from my angle.

@Laurel: To what value does variable tab-stop-list evaluate? Is it just
a list of integers, or does it include somewhere the string or symbol
tabstop? If you aren't sure, you can cut and paste to the mailing list
the value. One way to do that is to switch to your scratch
buffer, type tab-stop-list, then type C-u C-x C-e, then copy the result
into your e-mail. Another way is to perform C-h v tab-stop-list.

@Laurel: If variable tab-stop-list isn't responsible, could you send to
the mailing list a snippet of the lines surrounding the first two
error's in Katsumi's list, above? That would be a cut/paste operation of
lines 35-45 from file w3m-bookmark.el and lines 37-47 from file
w3m-cookie.el. Both files are probably in your ~/.emacs.d/elpa/w3m-....
directory.
