Re: probable bug in avoid.el

This is an avoid.el bug report, ubfortunately it's for 20.3.
I don't believe much if anything has changed in avoid.el since 20.3.
The only mouse avoidance mode guaranteed to work is 'banish and that
is only because InfoDock uses it.
I spent some time looking at it long, long ago when I was synching
XEmacs to FSF 19.34 and most of it didn't work and the FSF version had
no prayer of working in XEmacs. I quickly lost interest in it because
applications have no business moving the mouse pointer on their own --
it is *strictly* the domain of the user.
Needs to be verified for the current XEmacs version and maybe
fixed. Posted here for tracking and maybe sparking the interest
of a volunteer.
Maybe. I think we should delete avoid.el from XEmacs and be done with
it. Most of it doesn't work and it is truly ideologically blasphemous.
Let it be bundled with InfoDock only.
