At least I'd expect them to read the thread in (possibly the archive of) emacs-devel so that they may not report any known problems and hopefully fix them. I fear that it is enabled too casually. So, how about adding a comment like this? /* USE_ATSUI: Enable ATSUI support. It is still experimental and there are known problems. Please refer to the thread starting from http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2005-10/msg00005.html before enabling this flag. */ YAMAMOTO Mitsuharu mituharu@math.s.chiba-u.ac.jp
