I would say so, especially if you actually have modules built. I
don't think that will happen in 21.5, but I also don't think syncing
to 21.5 is do-able (the path-configuration machinery was completely
rewritten). Possibly it's just a matter of a tweak to configure?
I forgot to mention, that when not in -batch mode, module-directory
has this value
"/opt/myrkraverk/xemacs/21.4.22-mule/lib/xemacs-21.4.22/i386-pc-solaris2.11/modules/"
which is correct, despite the repetitions.
So, at least on Illumos (Solaris) there is a bug in -batch mode. Do
any of you have a clue what and where that might be?
Johann
