Re: xemacs 21.5.3 GTK|GNOME annoyance : it goes BEEP when it shouldn't.

with XEmacs 21.5.3 -- from CVS on september 21 --
compiled --with-gnome and --with-gtk,
it beeps on errors, despite the following efforts to stop it:
configured and compiled: --with-sound=none
ran: xset b off
disabled "enable sound server startup" in GNOME Control Center
evaluated: (setq bell-volume 0)
under those conditions -- and, presumably, under any conditions with the
GTK gui -- , it also beeps on 'quit', unless debug-on-quit is non-nil
I just tried this here with 21.5.3 and doing 'xset b off' silenced XEmacs.
Unfortunately I cannot test this with a plain X11 build because all flavors
of it I've tried to build are crashing at startup. :(
The reason the volume control isn't working from within XEmacs is that GDK
doesn't give us a way to change the volume (no XChangeKeyboardControl
equivalent). So... until GDK changes, this patch is our only chance to
make this work. It uses X specific stuff, but...
