Of course. The question du jour is, "but when do I start being a
PITA?"
and then the other XEmacs VM users (if there is indeed more than
one other) will have to complain about them.
If there were any, I think I would have heard about them before. The
thing is, some of the issues (motion and display -- I wouldn't be
surprised if the message history buffer is one of them) I see are due
to Mike Sperber screwing up window configurations[1], and other core
changes, whose impact is hard to understand (partly because the XEmacs
side changes are subtle, and partly ... er, well, I've ranted enough,
you can see where this is going :-P). I don't want to complain, have
the VM people apply a superficial fix, and then yank the rug out from
under them because it's really a core issue after all.
Using VM trunk under XEmacs is courageous, in the Yes, Minister
sense,
I think...
That's a new idiom on me, although I can sort of guess what it means.
How often do you update?
About two or three times a month, more when I've got the time.

[1] I'm sure he'll say VM depends on implementation-dependent
internals, but there you go. :-)
