Tasks needed before the next release.
* WINDOWS SUPPORT BUGS.
These don't need to be fixed before a release, but we call the
attention of Windows users to fixing them.
** henman@it.to-be.co.jp 09 Aug 2006: ispell.el problem on Cygwin.
(Did we decide that is unreproducible?)
* BUGS WAITING FOR MORE USER INPUT
** undefined reference getopt_long
Report by Daniel C. Bastos <dbast0s@yahoo.com.br> on bug-gnu-emacs
from 2007-08-27. Impossible to procede without more input from OP (as
of 20070912, emails are bouncing) or someone else who can reproduce this.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2007-08/msg01497.html
** emacs-22.1 with GTK problems (with patches)
Only outstanding issue seems to be whether Solaris 2.6 GTK can be
supported in the absence of recursive mutexes, via a change to
alloc.c, or whether configure should abort.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2007-09/msg00055.html

on a vfat or ntfs filesystem

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2008-01/msg01367.html
This should move the R frame edge 20pix to the R of the R screen edge.
Instead, it moves the L frame edge 20pix to the R of the L screen edge.
(modify-frame-parameters nil
'((user-position . t) (user-size . t) (left - -20)))

It works in Emacs 21. The "+ +" and "- +" forms are OK; ie it is when
the number is -ve that things go wrong.
* Bugs and feature requests for 22.3 or later
** python.el changes by Dave Love?
** etags support for php5
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2007-09/msg00131.html

even when other frame was closed due to assertion in xcd_xlib.c
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2007-10/msg00082.html
** outline does not change heading line endings
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2007-10/msg00175.html

Emacs 22 at some point.
