No, the issue cost me some real time recently, and it's done so at
other times in the not-too-distant past.

Nothing in my emails can reasonably be described as "badgering" or
"kicking".  On the contrary, I agree with Glenn and Juanma that
you are a valuable resource for Emacs development, and for that
reason I withdraw my suggestion to poll users about MS-DOS usage.

To try to avoid future kerfuffles like this, I'll look at
reworking the 8+3-related build-procedure code that cost me time
on Friday, so that it's less likely to do so in the future.
