You needn't lie. Say the truth: that it is undocumented because the
interface might change. Say that the user should stick to `.emacs'
util 21.1 when things will be bright and joyous once more.
We obviously have a different evaluation of the relative likelihoods
and importance of the different forms of breakage. I concede; you
probably know more about both.
Actually, I don't. I only haven't seen a compelling reason *not* to
keep the undocumented .xemacs/ code around, since it means so much for
the xemacs-beta members.
(except for custom-file, which unfortunately had to be reverted.)
