Receiving wrong-number-of-arguments on the emacs' git installation

[hjpotter92]

The function define-obsolete-variable-alias was updated to make the when argument mandatory now. This is leading to and error because of the following call in the smart-mode-line source:

  (define-obsolete-variable-alias 'sml/time-format 'display-time-format)

The full traceback is below:

The simplest way to achieve\nthis is to place the alias statement before the defcustom (this\nis not necessary for aliases that are autoloaded, or in files\ndumped with Emacs).  This is so that any user customizations are\napplied before the defcustom tries to initialize the\nvariable (this is due to the way `defvaralias' works).\n\nFor the benefit of Customize, if OBSOLETE-NAME has\nany of the following properties, they are copied to\nCURRENT-NAME, if it does not already have them:\n`saved-value', `saved-variable-comment'." #<bytecode 0x1e7e89fa3bf3fc56>)('sml/time-format 'display-time-format)
