OH BTW: where can I see patches from 2.4.3 to 2.4.4RC1???? 
 Sure you can.  You start by guessing that the user wants KOI8-R
 fonts.
 That's pretty likely to be valid, wouldn't you say?   
No.  Some fraction of users are already used to use ISO8859-5 (they were
forced by previous XEmacs-Mule).  Also, one of the most popular Cyrillic
fonts use font registry "koi8-1" (and there is also "koi8-ru" variant
also).   I do not currently understand how to handle of this mess
automatically, and do not want any heuristics on XEmacs side. 
 In my "these patches have no ChangeLog" queue, you mean? 
They're in
 21.4 now.... 
Yes, I know about that

good to see this uncommented and properly renamed :) 
 lisp/mule/cyrillic.el:;; (define-ccl-program
 ccl-encode-alternativnyj-font
 lisp/mule/ethiopic.el:(define-ccl-program ccl-encode-ethio-font

Too good there's not many of them.
