Re: Rationale sought: XEmacs 21.5.16 (test) build disabling MS windows toolkit

Hi,

I had a play with the XEmacs 21.5.16-1 build (which is the [test]
version atm). I noticed that, unlike the 21.4.17-1 and 21.4.15-1 build,
XEmacs could not be started using the native MS windows toolkit.

A quick look at the source package confirmed that support was explicitly
disabled:
/usr/src/xemacs-21.5.16-1.sh:130:    --with_msw=no
               \

Seeing as this is different from the 21.4 builds, any clues as to the
rationale behind this?



I believe that the XEmacs 21.5 branch with --with-msw=yes has been broken for a
while; however, I haven't tried to build it in a while, either. Assuming it's
still broken, I suspect that's the "rationale".

I tried to build it last week with --with-msw=yes and it crashed when I tried to move the XEmacs window. So, it is still broken.
