    dvl> To be precise, I think XEmacs should consider:
    dvl> ~/Library/Application Support/XEmacs as the alternative to
    dvl> ~/.xemacs and also /Library/Application Support/XEmacs as the
    dvl> alternative to /usr/local/share/xemacs.

If you make this change please make it a configure option or allow it to
look in both places.  I personally would prefer that XEmacs's configuration
setup "look" the same on all platforms I use, even if I choose to use a
platform-specific GUI.  I will never remember these other places to look for
stuff.
