    - feature freeze on the trunk.
    - create a branch for Emacs_21_4 where we can commit bug-fixes during
      the subsequent debugging+pretest+maintenance period.
    - merge the emacs-unicode changes onto the trunk.

This is unacceptable unless the emacs-unicode changes are almost ready
for real installation.  If they are almost ready, then rather than
doing this, we may want to merge them into the trunk now and include
them in the next release.  Otherwise they must remain a branch.
Basically, it's either in or out.
