APPROVE COMMIT packages/edit-utils
Norbert, I think this is ready to go. It works for me in 21.5.27, it
works for Murray (see <44C62B92.5040403(a)math.umass.edu>) in 21.4.19.
I still have some doubts about unsafe behavior by users (ie, trying to
share history across 21.4 and 21.5, or between XEmacs and GNU Emacs,
or changing the coding system used), but that's already being warned
against, and I don't really see how to improve the safety.
