I'm about to commit two new eclasses to support the compilation,
configuration, and installation of XEmacs lisp classes. In a desperate
attempt not to re-invent the wheel the interface and structure of the
classes has been shamelessly copied from the Emacs lisp classes. 

Currently the implementation is not complete yet, and I intend to fill
in more of the blanks as I actually need them for specific packages,
again following the emacs lisp eclasses where appropriate. 

The eclasses have been in the Emacs overlay for some time now in support
of the forthcoming app-xemacs/gentoo-syntax package:

http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/emacs/browser/emacs-overlay/eclass/xemacs-elisp.eclass
http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/emacs/browser/emacs-overlay/eclass/xemacs-elisp-common.eclass

Bring on the comments, improvements, and most importantly: approval to
put this in the tree.

Kind regards,

Hans
