Keep in mind that in general, version-specific checks are evil. Testing for existence of a particular function is often the best test, when applicable. After all, XEmacs needs that function to use the library. On the other hand, it's often good to check that lib version and header file version match. That's real hard to do without a version check. But there is a difference - it is better to test for version equality (since that is a version-independent test!) than for a specific version. Martin (Have I confused you yet?)
