Ok it does not work neither, that is I have 130 versions of that file
and can only visit the first 4 all other are reported as absent.

So I conclude that somehow the version file ,v is corrupted. What
really puzzles me that this seems to hold for ALL version controlled
files.

So it seems not so much a xemacs problem but it is an extremely odd
thing
