We generally avoid naming proprietary products, and instead say something like "some proprietary X servers". . The part that this problem is only known to happen with Emacs doesn't seem important (this is, after all, a file that deals solely with Emacs-related problems), and I'd omit it. . I'd prefer not to send the reader to read the bug discussion, and instead would tell here the important parts of what was said there that clarify the issue (if there are such details there). . We usually try to describe some workarounds -- do they exist in this case?
