[Bug: 21.5-b27] Line/Column numbers not showing

Dear Bug Team!

I can't seem to get the line and column numbers to show up
in this version of xemacs.  This is a new install (not an upgrade) from yum
in a fairly recently installed Fedora 6.  I have used xemacs quite
a bit in the past and never had this problem.

Note that I first checked Options->Display->Line Numbers/Column
numbers. They were selected (Green square).

I then tried to enable the line/column numbers with my init.el using:

(setq line-number-mode t) ;; Put line/column # at the bottom of the page
(setq column-number-mode t).

This doesn't work either.

Thanks for the amazing editor,
Hope this helps,
Daniel

Warning:

Defaulting to the GNU Emacs-derived `sendmail.el' mail client. This facility,
while part of base XEmacs, is heinously underfeatured, and not going to get
better in the medium term. We include it so that bug reports work without
packages; we suggest that you choose and/or install one of the other mail
clients from packages if you're doing something other than M-x
report-xemacs-bug , or even if you are reporting bugs regularly.

To choose a package from those installed, click on "Options" ->
"Internet" -> "Compose Mail With ..." and decide on one from the
list. Gnus and VM are full-featured and have active user communities.

To disable this warning and stick with the old behavior, you can explicitly
initialize `mail-user-agent' to 'sendmail-user-agent .
