I found out that root can still use XEmacs. After I changed the XEmacs
attributes to a+sx ordinary users can use the full XEmacs again, but
this is not the right way to fix it, as all saved files now are saved
with owner/group-ids root/wheel, which are the owner/group-ids of
the xemacs-19.15 binary.
Does anyone care to comment?
