[PATCH] Gnu graphic is redrawn twice at startup in XEmacs

[SL Baur]

The Gnu graphic is reloaded unnecessarily in XEmacs in X11.  Patch
tested with latest developmental XEmacs in X11 and on the Linux console.

	* gnus-xmas.el (gnus-xmas-group-startup-message): Tell gnus-start
	we've already drawn the pretty Gnu graphic.

Speaking of which.  I recall a bitmapped Gnu graphic for FSF Emacs.
What happened to that?

Yeah, that was cool! As a die-hard FSF Emacs user, I'd sure like to it added
to Gnus properly.

Eh? Did something happen to my splash screen?
I probably still have the source around if it
just got lost, though I may feel compelled to
rewrite it if I look at it again.

Well, no :-)

At least, I've never seen it used in Gnus.

It was included in Gnus.  If you install the last etc.tar.gz package,
Gnus should display a neat bitmapped gnu when you start Gnus under X
under Emacs.
