   EMACS MH-RMAIL WARNING

   Resolution: I will include the following note in the relevant part of
   the Emacs section (NOT in the Other Software Changes section where it
   currently appears):

       * If you have edited a message in mh-rmail mode and try to switch
	 to a different buffer, Emacs now gives you an opportunity to save
	 the changes to the rmail messages with a warning of the form:

	   Message <em>message-number</em> modified; flush changes?
	   (yes or no)

I'm not sure this always happens, but I think it does.  The other
thing is that when it happens I haven't been able to get it to do
anyhting useful until I tell it yes.

   Question: is this a system-specific behavior?

I believe I've seen it on both sun and sgi now.

   #!/bin/csh ISSUE


   Resolution: ???  

I believe the resolution is that /bin/csh is csh on SGI's and tcsh on
suns.  This means that any scripts that are csh scripts, but use tcsh
features will lose on sgi's.  This may or may not include people's
customized .xsessions, or any other scripts they have.
