With my latest patch you could change that to 'make install' if you
want.

Which is great!

Non-Mule builds would probably be a good idea. The bindist target
wouldn't be as important because that gets tested by the XPRE every
time he rolls a package.

In an ideal world you'd be doing 6 builds (21.[145] Mule & non-Mule)
per make target per platform (all the platforms that XEmacs
supports). But it's your time, bandwidth, hardware and we're not
paying you. It's totally up to you how much you do.
What I will say is that we are very grateful and appreciative of the
fantastic work and invaluable information that your smoketests
provide. Thank you *very* much, Mats!

True.
