Somewhere along the way (possibly b/w XEmacs 20 and 21, possibly
after I unsub'd from the list ;-) the blessed way of doing this
changed.
The punch-line of this joke is that I'm not sure what the blessed way
of doing this is. The `delete-forward-p' function isn't even
documented! And it's (probably unnecessarily) inlined, which means it
will screw all the existing byte-compiled code as soon as we change
its definition.
Thanks for helping be uncover a bug in my Exceed setup, and Hrvoje,
it's good to see you hacking Python! :-)
For the former, I don't understand; for the latter, you're welcome.

Python is very cool. It's a shame it doesn't have lexical closures,
though. Even the four-letter-P-word "language" has them.
