ESingular will not start after upgrading to emacs22-gtk

ESingular will not start after upgrading to emacs22-gtk

Hi everyone,
I am running Singular on Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn, AMD-X2 64bit version.
Up until recently everything was fine, running ESingular would start Singular in emacs21(X11). But now after I installed emacs22-gtk, when I start ESingular, either from the terminal or main menu, emacs22 would launch and give the following error: "Symbol's function definition is void: lazy-lock-mode".
Singular still runs normally in the terminal.

Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks.

I get the same error in a new installation w/ emacs 22.2. Ever resolve the issue?

I might have mucked something else up but commenting out these two lines (101 & 102 in
my installation):
(add-hook 'font-lock-mode-hook 'lazy-lock-mode)
(setq font-lock-support-mode 'lazy-lock-mode)
in <singular path>/emacs/.emacs-singular got ESingular to launch into emacs
and give me the normal startup message and a responsive prompt. Tried a few
trivial examples which worked. I'm functional, but uncomfortable. Can anyone offer some
guidance?

Thanks,
Mike
