I tried patches given but had still had enough W3 problems to keep it
worthless.  Things like an invalid arguments of keymapp.

However when I build URL and W3 from the CVS (from cvs.gnu.org) 
things worked very nicely.  The tar file on www.xemacs.com seem way
out of date.

I only needed to set the custom varable w3-user-colors-take-precedence
to "t" to get avoid a lot of color dissonance against my dark
background emacs setup.  Emacs 21 doesn't seem to have a way to set a
window specific background color for W3 to use.
