Log Message:
Update xemacs-current from 21.5.18 to 21.5.19

From the ChangeLog:

*          XEmacs 21.5.19 "chives" is released.
      "chives" is the twentieth in the VEGETABLE series.

Relative to XEmacs 21.5.18 "chestnut", "chives" includes a large
number of minor enhancements and work-in-progress.  Some important or
annoying bugs have been fixed:

  - The lstream data truncation bug (often observed as truncated emails
    or truncated process input in buffers) has been identified and
    fixed, we believe (hard to test).

  - The bug where process output insertion replaced the whole buffer,
    rather than just the region, has been fixed.

  - The "Metacity maximize" bug (which was XEmacs's fault, not the
    window manager's) has been fixed.

Known remaining bugs include:

  - Aborts due to recursive entry to the allocation code from error
    handlers.  Workaround: avoid getting the memory full warnings (at
    75% and 95% of memory space).

  - A regression test failure in no-Mule builds.  Workaround: don't
    run the c-tests.el series when running tests.  (Simply move
    tests/automated/c-tests.el out of the way.)

Currently fairly stable, this seems to be a good point to release a
beta as a checkpoint.  At the user level the most visible changes are
extension of the "behavior" mechanism for enabling and disabling
features, and a major reorganization of the documentation in the
source tree.  For behaviors, see the Options->Behaviors submenu.

The source documentation changes include

   At top level,
      README has been gutted, with most content moved to the FAQ.
      BUGS and README.packages were removed, with much of their content
      moved to the FAQ.
      GETTING.GNU.SOFTWARE was removed.

   In etc,
      BETA, CHARSETS, CODING-STANDARDS, CODINGS, DEBUG, DISTRIB, MACHINES,
      and PACKAGES were removed, with most content moved to various Texinfo
      documents.
      FTP, GNU, LPF, MAILINGLISTS MORE.STUFF, MOTIVATION, ORDERS,
      ORDERS.EUROPE, ORDERS.JAPAN, README.HYPERBOLE, README.OO-BROWSER,
      SERVICE, and TERMS were removed.

   PROBLEMS and etc/README were revised.

For developers, the following important internal API changes occurred.

  - Initialization code (called from emacs.c:main_1()) has been
    refactored.  See the ChangeLog (2004-10-27, Ben Wing) for details.

  - The GCPRO API has been refactored.  See the ChangeLog (2004-10-27,
    Ben Wing) for details.  (Yes, it was a megapatch: same log entry.)

For more detailed information, there is a list of credits, and then
the full ChangeLogs, following the availability information.
