I believe you can change gpm support with the provided configure
script. Type "configure --help" to verify, but I think you will want
to run "configure --without-gpm" or maybe "configure --with-gpm=no"
However, I gave up on the debian source because when I went to make a
Debian package, it overrided my custom options. (Which, I'm sure is
my own fault, having not read any info on creating Deb packages).
Ultimately, I just snagged the vanilla XEmacs 20.4 source
(http://xemacs.cs.uiuc.edu), and installed in /usr/local with epkg
(http://www-wsg.cso.uiuc.edu/epkg/), which is similar to stow.
My homegrown XEmacs seems to run faster, too.
