This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team,
not to your local site managers!!
Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
Please describe as succinctly as possible:
- What happened.
- What you thought should have happened.
- Precisely what you were doing at the time.
Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have.

Dear Bug Team!
I upgraded lately to XEmacs-2.5-b8 in order to see if I can use it for
daily work. I'm pretty pleased with the modifications (like the
line/column mode numbers being better placed). Thank you very much for
your excellent work.
Still, while investigating, I observed that there is a nice
vc-annotate feature in the VC package. I used to do
M-! cvs annotate <filename>
all the time, but of course C-x v g is much much better :-)
The problem with vc-annotate is that, by default, it has ugly contrast
faces (black background with dark foreground colors). Of course, my
first step was to attempt to customize these faces and have them saved
for further use, in my .xemacs/custom.el file. Yet, vc-annotate
doesn't seem to obey correctly to these settings.
That is, loading a CVS file and doing C-x v g (or M-x vc-annotate),
still brings the unreadable dark-on-black faces. I have to do a
M-x load-file<RET>~/.xemacs/custom.el
in order for the colors to be corrected. At this moment, my settings
become obeyed.
Yet, the next time I will do a vc-annotate (within the same XEmacs
usage session, i.e. without having stopped and restarted XEmacs in the
meanwhile), on a different file, I will still get the black
background, and will be forced to, once again, M-x
load-file<RET>~/.xemacs/custom.el.
Thanks a lot for your attention.
