Adding suport for libidn to xemacs packages

I have one problem though, where to put it? [1]. Since these files
requires utf8 support should they be provided by a mule-package or is
it OK to add them to the net-lib package where they seem to belong
logically.
If they *contain* UTF-8, they must go in mule-packages. Non-mule
XEmacs 21.4 is not prepared to handle that at all in Lisp libraries
(although modern XEmacs 21.5 can handle UTF-8 and UTF-16, I believe,
at least with an appropriate compile switch but without Mule).
If they don't actually contain UTF-8, but compute it on the fly, they
can go in net-lib, but probably should error on load if Unicode
support is not available.
