I've just granced at it and found that all of my requests seems to be
done. Thank you!
But I found that "*-mule-wnn" and "*-mule-canna-wnn" packages are
built with "--with-wnn=yes", but it should be replaced by
"--with-wnn6=yes". The configure option "--with-wnn=yes" is for
Wnn4/FreeWnn and "--with-wnn6=yes" is for Wnn6. Wnn6 is
upper-compatible with Wnn4/FreeWnn and provides much functionality, so
"--with-wnn6=yes" is better. In this case, you have to install
"wnn6-dev", not "wnn-dev" or "freewnn-*-dev" before building xemacs21.
Just one more request: Could you set up an apt-able staging area or do
an official upload? I'd like to test them as precompiled Debian
packages as well.

Dres has set up his apt-able area recently at "deb
http://va.debian.org/~dres/xemacs21/"; (see also
http://www.debian.org/Lists-Archives/debian-devel-9909/msg01575.html). I
hope Dres's and yours are integrated and available in potato soon.
