Thanks for the update reg. XEmacs homepage.  I also hope that XEmacs
will not become defunct.

I'm not thinking about removing compat code.  I'm thinking about marking
11.90 as the last version with XEmacs support.  Code coming in future
might be incompatible.  But again, the same question would go for Emacs
versions as well.
