Now that this is out, would someone be willing to make up binaries for it? [Who
made the 21.1.9 binaries?] The 21.1.9 binaries still have a startup problem
that was fixed somewhat in 21.1.10, and this is the single biggest problem that
people are running into -- and something that probably dissuades many, many
people who never say a peep. [If you downloaded a new piece of software and ran
it, and nothing happened at all, you'd throw it away, too, right?]
Thanks muchly,
ben

In order to save my hands, I am cutting back on my mail. I also write
as succinctly as possible -- please don't be offended. If you send me
mail, you _will_ get a response, but please be patient, especially for
XEmacs-related mail. If you need an immediate response and it is not
apparent in your message, please say so. Thanks for your understanding.
