My app-defaults won't work for emacs any more

[T o n g <mlist4suntong@yahoo.com>]

Hi,

I haven't updated my emacs for quite a while and today when I update it, 
I notice that the new emacs is not following my app-defaults settings, 
which has been working for quite a long time. 

Does it happen to you as well? How did you fix it?

Thanks
