I'll present results to date in a separate mail.

Oh, yeah. Do them on machines where GTK+ and GNOME are _not_
installed, too. That absolutely must work.
Sandra> When do you need them by?
Three weeks before the release date ;-) I apologize for another
management inefficiency, but let's put it this way: do them as soon as
you can, and watch xemacs-beta because I or Bill will announce when
the urgency passes (basically, when Bill starts merging back to the
release branch). It will still be useful even if later than that, but
it probably can't affect the go/no-go decision.
Sandra> what machines are most important to you?
For Linux, anything non-Intel. Alpha and Sparc Linux, I guess are
about the same priority as say Solaris (Solaris would be rather
important, except that I know Bill will provide a lot of data there),
but it's hard to judge. Any other Linuces would be lower priority.
For non-Linux, whatever the most common platform for the OS is.
Except that I'm getting a fair number of Sparc/Solaris builds
recently, so Sparc/Solaris, like Intel/Linux is near zero priority---
if that's your main platform, by all means, submit build reports, it
helps, but I would prefer any extra effort to go in other directions.

NT native (I doubt you're set up for that, but others may be, and I
should have been more specific about priorities). Cygwin. Irix.
HPUX. NetBSD, OpenBSD.
Then Solaris and FreeBSD, but Bill has done those and probably will
report them very shortly.
