Excuse me? Then what's this about "switching threads"? XEmacs is
(trivially) multi-threaded on the Mac, and maybe on Windows.

You mean, nothing picked up among the libraries that _is_ stock.
You're running "if you trust our marketing department, it may be
better, but it definitely ain't stock" Red Hat. Red Hat's people give
presentations where they brag that the patchkit is bigger than the
original sources.
This is great if you are one of the packages that they hang that Red
Hat on---the patches you need go it, but for us third-party
maintainers, it's just the world's most upright middle finger.
Hey, I'm sounding like Olivier Galibert, or was that Didier Verna?
