I wasn't suggesting that you do deal with the issue.  I don't think the
problem has anything to do with the differences between Emacs and
XEmacs, but rather, a problem specific to Carsten's set up.

What I was saying is that if Carsten can solve the problem he should
be able to use whatever editor he wants for editing the ChangeLogs (or
any other file).

I totally agree.
