Please mention which version of Emacs 21 you are talking about, eg:
what does M-x emacs-version say ?

What do you mean?  Emacs hasn't anything to do with Gnome.

I don't know.  I'm running 21.3.1 (i386-pc-solaris2.7, X toolkit) which I built,

and it's <f1> -> e -> 1 (one) for tmm-menubar -> Edit -> Search.  At that point, 
there is no Rereplace command, but Replace is on 0 (zero).

Perhaps you could use the tmm.el and tmm.elc files from the older version of
Emacs that you prefer.
