Re: [for 21.1.1] Patch for Patchlevels [Was 21.0-b67]
This patch has been committed to the 21.1 branch. Everyone who has
been unhappy please test it before I make 21.1.1. I'm not sure I like
the way the patch level is put into `emacs-version' -- I want it to
appear as X.Y.Z, but I know there hasn't yet been consensus for that
change.

OK, here is the for patch that. This turns emacs_beta_version into a
patch level when emacs_is_beta is not defined. The 21.2.x release
process needs to be fixed to include that, but that is not a priority
right now.
This in a works for me stage. I need to do some real work now. I
hope
somebody can take this and make 21.1.1 this weekend.
