Thanks!

By the way, if you've posted a build-report any time recently (say,
within 6 months), you can just say that, too, and not go to any other
trouble to reproduce the configuration.  (True, pre-September
build-reports aren't on the web at the moment, but that's my
responsibility.:-)

xemacs-buildreports is a (mostly) write-only list; just do src/xemacs
-vanilla -f build-report in the build directory (assuming XEmacs is
capable of sending mail at that point, which is usually true on
Unix).  That will give you a ready-to-send mail buffer, preaddressed,
with the data we need.

If you have local patches, it would be nice if you make a note of that
in the build report.  It's up to you whether you provide the patch
itself (of course we'd love to have it but we'd much rather have just
the automatic stuff than no report at all), but it's important that we
know if we're using the build-report to analyze problems.
