Hi All!

I'm happy to confirm the fix with the XEmacs I'm currently running:

XEmacs 21.5  (beta27) "fiddleheads" (+CVS-20070202) [Lucid] (i586-pc-win32, Mule) of Sat Feb 03 2007 on TANG

I am now finally able to turn off the workaround I had put into my
.emacs a while back:

i 2006/04/25 15:20:00 XEmacs work (finding workaround for dired interaction messing up coding-system: (setq dired-refresh-automatically nil))
