Then there should be (require 'format-spec) in git-blame.el, right? Due
to:

$ emacs --version
GNU Emacs 23.1.1
[...]
$ emacs --batch -Q -f format-spec
Symbol's function definition is void: format-spec
$

Now, I've evaluated (require 'format-spec) in my Emacs 22 (yes, 22, not
23), and now git-blame almost works there. The problem I see is that it
doesn't output anything in the echo area. It color-codes the buffer, it
does show correct pop-up when mouse is over a region, but it doesn't
print anything in the echo area when I move cursor through the regions.
Any idea how to debug/fix this?
