We probably ought to pitch everything unnecessary to building right

have hesitated because of past squeals of pain, but I think the time
is probably right, now. The XEmacs core should only contain the
minimum files necessary for making an xemacs binary *and* to provide
for minimal vi-equivalent editing functionality. Everything else
should be loadable at run-time, that way it isn't bloat.
I think it should also contain sufficient stuff to bootstrap packages from
the internet. But at the moment that means including efs.
