The patch works fine, thanks! Will you submit it?
Jan, deleting a few packages I found this:
Removing old files for package "tm" ...
Removing directory: Directory not empty, c:\Program Files\XEmacs\xemacs-packages
lisp/tm is left on disk, but it seems that an attempt is made to
remove c:\Program Files\XEmacs\xemacs-packages. That seems wrong,
doesn't it?
