>Description:

The editors/mule-ucs package makes emacs 21.2 load unbearably slowly
when unicode support is turned on in the standard way.

>How-To-Repeat:

cd editors/mule-ucs
make install && make clean
echo "(require 'un-define)" >> ~/.emacs
emacs

>Fix:

Assumedly this problem will be fixed by either the next update of
mule-ucs or emacs21. In the meantime here's a patch from

    http://tsukuba.m17n.org/mule-archive/2002-3/msg00000.html

Just put the following into editors/mule-ucs/patches/patch-aa
