in debian, you have better and easier choice to use pre-compiled
packages for xemacs and gnu emacs and gnus and t-gnus etc etc. you
usually will have fewer hassles with software installation.

man apt-get <--- i suppose this would be a reason for you to choose
                 debian. ;)

you could tune the size used for chinese fonts, the default in xemacs
is very ugly. and xemacs M-q works ugly with chinese too. but emacs21
is totally different. all shining all singing. ;)

see people.debian.org/~zw for some screenshots where listed some lisp
snippet to tune the font/fontsize used for chinese in xemacs. if you
can't stand people.debian.org/~kitame debian package for emacs21 (and
there're xemacs21.4 too which is the newest version of xemacs.)
