        Well, there are a number of packages that were bundled into
 XEmacs, sometimes with enhancements specific for the advanced
 graphical capability of XEmacs. For some packages, it is necessary to
 perform additional configuration for XEmacs (VM comes to mind). I
 maintain a number of Emacs lisp packages, and I confess the decision
 not to override the builtin packages that come with XEmacs is partly
 due to the facts that a) I do not use XEmacs, and hance can't really
 drive the assimilation, and b) it would require co-ordinating with
 the XEmacs a=maintainer, and I have been lazy (well, because of
 clause a, this is moot).

        I did make gnus compile on XEmacs as well, since that package
 is known to be well integrated into all new emacsen. If anyone tests
 psgml on XEmacs, I'll try and coordinate with the developer in
 question. This requires one to add the xemacs20 to the case statement
 in the files /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/{install,remove}/psgml,
 and run /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/psgml xemacs20
           *or*
 /usr/lib/emacsen-common/emacs-package-install psgml
