Gravatar and XEmacs

[Katsumi Yamaoka <yamaoka@jpl.org>]

Hi,

Currently gravatar.el is unable to compile with XEmacs because
image.el is not available:

Compiling gnus/lisp/gravatar.el...
While compiling toplevel forms in file gnus/lisp/gravatar.el:
  !! File error (("Cannot open load file" "image"))

Is there a plan to make it work?  It seems only the create-image
function is the reason image.el is required.  If so:

Though it may be no more than a starting point to make it work
since I haven't tried Gravatar yet, though. ;-)
