Not at all. 21.4 is to be promoted as stable "soon". These are definitely bugs that should be fixed, whether they would go directly into 21.4 or not is a question of how invasive they need to be. I would think they generally just involve wrapping a couple lines of code in (when window-system ...); this should not be a problem. Whether you work with 21.4 or 21.5, make sure that the patch is labelled RECOMMENDed for the other line. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Don't ask how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
