I didn't follow this discussion closely on emacs-devel.  Is it an
incompatible change WRT Emacs 21 (and XEmacs 21.[45])?  (At least a
quick `emacs-lisp-byte-compile-and-load' succeeded in Emacs 21.)

[The new-style backquotes change is also in emacs-rel-22 so it is
independent from how we proceed with merging.]

Hm, the etc/ reorganization is only in Emacs trunk, isn't it.  Did you
sync from Emacs/trunk to Gnus/v5-10?

Given that we only have a couple of files in etc, I don't think we
need a separate directory for the Gnus refcard.  OTOH, I won't object
to it if it makes it more simple for you.  What do people think?
