Today I realised I’m able to install Mojave on an external HDD without
affecting my High Sierra install, so I gave it a go and this patch
works, so I guess it maybe didn’t apply correctly. Perhaps it doesn’t
apply to master?

Given that Emacs 26.2 is in pre‐release now I’m inclined to leave
emacs-26 as‐is for now, unless we require the 8th of November patch
(Further changes to NS drawing (bug#32932))? I don’t think we do as
iirc it just solves a minor redrawing issue (i.e. Emacs is still
usable without it). Is that right?
