The emacs server code in server.el in on the 6.3A packs (18.54.3 on a
testers RT, with the testers packs) has been modified, and the
functionality of the temp-file-regexp variable and the temp-file-p
function has been removed.

This is unfortunate.  I use that temp-file functionality quite a bit,
and removing it appears to have added nothing whatsoever to the code.
It was replaced by a function "mh-draft-p" which could just as well
have been added to the code in addition to the temp-file code, rather
than replacing it.

Any explanation for why this was removed?
