Dear Bug Team!
As requested by Stephen in the "What is the status of 21.5?" thread on
xemacs-beta, here is a skeleton bug report.
Because of the complexity of the problem, it's not possible with small
effort to produce minimal reproducible examples.
Basically use of VM (version 7.19 in my case) is severely impaired
under 21.5, for the following reasons:
1) There is highly visible reconfiguation of windows during some VM
operations. (Typical VM frame has a summary window at the top, and a
message window at the bottom. Under 21.5, these windows sometimes
disappear from the display and then reappear, when under 21.4 this
doesn't happen.)
2) The position of point in the VM summary buffer/window does not
behave. Some operations appear to move point in the window when it's
not expected, resulting in, e.g., the wrong message being deleted when
you hit 'd' expecting to delete the next message.
I vaguely suspect that's my fault (i.e. the window-config rewrite). I
don't use VM: It would greatly help if you could provide "instructions
for dummies" to reproduce the problem, i.e. of the form:
do M-x vm RET
enter a folder with >n messages
press x z u v M-u 4 2 ...
(You get the drift, I hope.)
