Here is a new version, incorporating a suggestion from Stefan
Monnier.  I have made an entry in etc/NEWS.

Should I use "unsigned int" or "EMACS_UINT"?

Opinions?

 The new variable `w32-pass-extra-mouse-buttons-to-system' controls
 whether Emacs should handle the extra buttons itself (the default), or
 pass them to Windows to be handled with system-wide functions.

+** Under X11, it is possible to swap Alt and Meta (and Super and Hyper).
+The new variables `x-alt-keysym', `x-hyper-keysym', `x-meta-keysym',
+and `x-super-keysym' can be used to choose which keysyms Emacs should
+use for the modifiers.  For example, the following two lines swap
+Meta and Alt:

+    (setq x-meta-keysym 'alt)
