Well, I didn't realize that Emacs 20 and XEmacs both appear to have
`overlay-arrow-string' and `overlay-arrow-position', too.

But at least in Emacs 20, the arrow will obscure the first two
characters of the current summary line.  Maybe this isn't a problem?
Or maybe the thing to do would be to make it a user variable, and
default it to true.  The people who dislike it could then set it to
nil.  Thoughts?
