Yes, I do. I sometimes pick up packages before they are assimilated into
XEmacs. I then have to figure occasionally what of my stuff that needs to
be tossed out. This may be such a case.
If I run under "xemacs -q", I get different behavior. It simply hangs with
the message "Opening FTP connection to localhost..." if I try to visit
/admin@localhost:8021/ (the local Zope ftp listener). I still see no log
info in the Zope window.
I then tried renaming ~/emacs to ~/emacs- and running xemacs again (without
the -q option). I am back to the same error message:
*ftp admin@localhost* seems not a pty. Kill? (y or n)
I will see if rebuilding helps.
