I'm not asking for any such thing. It's just an observation that keeping
a package working for both Emacs and XEmacs requires adding more and
more conditional code because of a diverging API.
Some changes I find difficult to understand. There seems little
incentive for removing trivial one-line aliases like easy-menu-add,
unless the goal were to intentionally break compatibility.
