I'll second David's claim, then. There is no released and versioned 
source for XEmacs packages and we notice this in Gentoo.

What I would like to do in an ideal world for Gentoo is to compile the 
elisp on the user's machine so that he'll get the byte-code optimized for 
the local installation (e.g. using 21.5 byte-code if desired). Right now 
that is not possible because I don't have the source to properly install 
the package. I guess I could work around this by identifying my own cvs 
snapshots and work from there, but that seems like a very brittle 
approach to get this working.

In practice we currently just install the pre-compiled lisp files and be 
done with it, and this works fine for 21.4 and 21.5.

Kind regards,

Hans
