Bugs in 21.5 und MS Windows

Hey all My system: XEmacs 21.5.6, updated from CVS some minutes ago, compiled with Mule and all external packages, native Windows, MS Visual C++ 6, running under Windows XP, all bugs tested with "xemacs -vanilla". Here are some bugs: Selecting rectangles with the mouse via M - button1 doesn't work. The meta key is ignored, XEmacs behaves as if I didn't hold it. Under 21.4.6 it works as suggested. It is impossible to display characters which are part of Unicode, but of no other coding-system known to XEmacs. Instead of the character a bold = is drawn. Testcase: Open http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/examples/UTF-8-demo.txt in XEmacs and Notepad (on modern Windows) and change font to one which includes unicode quite well, e.g. Arial Unicode MS from http://download.microsoft.com/download/publisher2000/Aruniup/2000/WIN98/E... You'll see that Notepad displays everything, while XEmacs fails on many characters, especially in the "Mathematics and Sciences:" Section. FSF Emacs 21.2 running under the same environment doesn't have any problems, too. Then there still are the problems, already described: It's impossible to choose any input-method other than the default one and (prefer-coding-system 'arg) doesn't work, if arg is a windows charset or a unicode encoding scheme like utf-8. P.S. I know that this is probably work for Ben and that he's on vacation, but I just wanted to write it down to prevent me from forgetting it and maybe there's somewhere out there, who can fix the one ore the other issue.
