 Ah well. Replace with
 
 EMACS_TYPE=xemacs214
 
 (or whatever it is called this month), bulk build, and experience the 
 same problems.
 
 But that's a general XEmacs package maintenance problem more than one 
 of the individual packages, I suspect. And since XEmacs as well as 
 its pkg are in a sorry state of maintenance these days (like, e.g., 
 auctex, which is officially supported on XEmacs, not building against 
 it in pkgsrc), I probably won't bother to pick the issue up again.
