Thanks Geert. This is encouraging then. Although the GTK version is
still not as robust as the other toolkit versions, the 21.4.x series has
progressed well in terms of GTK support. Well enough that I've used it
as my only xemacs since 21.4.4 (.3?). 21.4.6 scrollbars work fine, the
menu bar works fine, the widgets work okay (some subtle stuff in the
customization groups)...
21.4.6 is definitly superior to the forked 21.1.12_p3 version we
currently have. I look forward to sending what I have to bugs.gentoo
after a little more testing and possibly a README.Gentoo to explain what
to expect as a user.
Matt
