If so, howcum stuff is getting installed into .../xemacs-21.5-b1? I
wonder if I screwed up the upload? Apparently not, my workspace (as
opposed to my upload staging checkout) says 21.5.2. Omigawd. I've
got the wrong name for that tag in my script!
Very sorry. Most definitely my bad. Fixed.
Please reupdate (using the r21-5-latest-beta tag) and rebuild. My
apologies for the inconvenience.
It helps to catch these version problems if you provide an
Installation file; please don't omit it in the future.

This should be good enough for the db test. postgresql is not tested
by the db stuff AFAIK. Thanks; I'll take a look and see why the db
test is failing to run.

Right. Therefore XEmacs's build process should _never_ call "xemacs";
it should call "$builddir/src/xemacs".
