Title:
  emacs23 with quack not working

Status in emacs23 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  quack is an add-on to emacs (emacs23 as well). After getting it and "requiring" it in emacs23, it seems to have loaded properly, but doesn't seem to have any effect on the editor.
  Steps taken:

  -sudo apt-get install emacs23
  -sudo apt-get install emacs-goodies-el
  -create ~/.emacs ; adding a line "(require 'quack)"
  -start emacs23
  -create new .scm file, or simply switch to scheme-mode (M-x scheme-mode)
  At this point, when switching to scheme-mode a new option of the quack menu appears under scheme options.
  However, none of the options have any effect on the editor. For instance newline indentation doesn't work, and also fontification options.

  On emacs23-lucid everything works well and as expected.

  Tested and reported same result on Linux Mint 13 Cinnamon and Linux
  Mint 13 Mate.
