AFAICS highlighting and commands like M-q, C-c C-o and C-c C-e ar working
but
- imenu (maybe because XEmacs has a different menu package)
- outline-minor-mode

and because I mostly need the menu, the conclusion was "it doesn't work for 
me".  I have looked into it, but I am not a great lisp hacker, so ...

BTW: is it possible to go from an error in the log directly to the right 
place in the document?

Uuuuh, really?  I didn't looked into it, but a structured listing of the 
current document and some help by setting references (buttons and so on!) 
would be very nice.

Anyway, if there is no other system out there in the wilderness, I will 
start looking deeper into the problems I found and maybe some day there 
will be some answer to the question ;-))
