Yeah, talking about XEmacs in particular here probably isn't very
relevant any more, so the patch looks good to me.

KI'm okay with removing that part, but I think we should also say
there that XEmacs is no longer being actively developed, so no new
releases of it are expected and no new code will be added to it.
