Giacomo, in my local tests, this fixes the gnuclient problem you were
seeing. There is still a warning about the attempt to instantiate a pixmap
specifier on a TTY; this warning is probably wrong, and I’ll fix it
at some point, but this should be good enough for most purposes now.

2010-10-25  Aidan Kehoe  <kehoea(a)parhasard.net>
	* specifier.c (specifier_instance_from_inst_list):
	Call call_with_suspended_errors() with ERROR_ME_WARN, explicitly;
	avoids the problem Giacomo Boffi describes in
	
http://mid.gmane.org/19617.52517.341117.388679@aiuole.stru.polimi.it
	, but the specifier instantiation bug that makes XEmacs fail for
	him is still visible.
