Recipe for disaster:

    milhouse$ uname -a
    CYGWIN_NT-5.0 MILHOUSE 1.3.1(0.38/3/2) 2001-04-24 20:01 i686 unknown
    milhouse$ xemacs -vanilla

    M-: (setq load-path (cons "/path/for/oort-gnus/" load-path))
    M-x load-library message
    M-x message-mail
    M-x filladapt-mode
    (insert the following in the body of the message)
    > this is some citation
    > text that needs to be filled.
    (now put the cursor on this text and press)
    M-q

XEmacs enters an infinite loop which cannot be broken with C-g.

For the ding list: Oort v0.03 and filladapt don't work together under
Cygwin XEmacs. This problem does not exist in 5.8.8.

For the xemacs-beta: It would be really nice if C-g broken out of the
loop. I realize that this may not be possible, though.


Further details

o Cygwin 1.3.1, most recent version of everything
o Oort Gnus v0.03
o xemacs-21.4.3 and xemacs-21.5-b1, up-to-date with pre-release packages.

If there are any other details that you need, please let me know.
