Hi,

Unfortunately, the new font locking scheme used by auctex still doesn't 
work at all with xemacs 21.5.27. Reading this thread, I got the 
impression that the xemacs developers are not exactly interested in 
fixing the xemacs bug causing this problem. In the meantime, are you 
guys considering any possible workaround?

Thanks a lot,

Artemio
