* cus-edit.el (custom-save-all):
If the directory containing the custom file doesn't exist, try to
create it. Fixes Nick's Crabtree's bug of
5fb265820712140145w512fa3bbh355cf76f7e2cf792(a)mail.gmail.com ;
thank you Nick.
* menubar-items.el (default-menubar):
In the code to edit the user's init file, try to create the
containing directory if it doesn't exist.
Nuke that t out of make-directory, please. Creating the .xemacs or
_xemacs directory is a normal function of creating an init file;
creating $HOME or the equivalent is not.
Sure, some users won't care, but others will. We shouldn't just
proliferate random directories, that's even worse than the dump file
(about which we did get complaints, and even a "I don't know what this
is so I'll delete it" bug report IIRC).
