 It would feel cleaner to me in some ways to not have the top-level
 Makefile override the value of CC, but I don't actually know how to do
 that without jeopardizing the build in src and lwlib, so I'm happy to go
 with your approach.  Would you mind sending your patch one more time,
 but to xemacs-patches(a)xemacs.org this time?  (Incidentally, do you have
 commit privileges?) 
I'll resend the patch (and no, I don't have commit privileges, nor
would I want them).
