(#includes): Allow compilation with only Xaw. (xaw3d_arrow_scroll, xaw3d_pick_top): New variables. (xt_action_hook): Replace XAW3D by XAW. (xaw3d_jump_callback): Renamed to xaw_jump_callback. (xaw_jump_callback): Renamed from xaw3d_jump_callback. Determine epsilon dynamically and don't try to be too clever. (xaw3d_scroll_callback): Renamed to xaw_scroll_callback. (xaw_scroll_callback): Renamed from xaw3d_scroll_callback. Handle both Xaw3d with arrow-scrollbars and with Xaw-style scrollbar (using `ratio'). (x_create_toolkit_scroll_bar): Try to detect which style of Xaw3d scrollbar we have so as to set it up more optimally and to fix xaw3d_arrow_scroll and xaw3d_pick_top. (x_set_toolkit_scroll_bar_thumb): Try to maintain 2 spare pixels at the bottom of the Xaw3d scrollbar, to work around its tendency to refuse shrinking the thumb. Also make sure that `XawScrollbarSetThumb' is not ignored, using a major gross hack. (x_initialize): Init default values for xaw3d_arrow_scroll and xaw3d_pick_top.

This is a list of known problems to date with the Windows NT/95 port of
GNU Emacs.

* Handle wildcards in ls-lisp (e.g., C-x d *.c).

* Interactive subprocess output is buffered in jerky

* Presently, C:\foo\bar and C:/foo/bar bring up two buffers on the same file.
  Solve this by adding a switch that canonicalizes path separators
  (e.g., make them all / or all \)?

* call-process-region: Another tricky situation with binary and text modes.
  An example by [e-mail]: use crypt++ to load compressed
  data into a buffer, edit the buffer, save the data back out.  (Also
  need to propagate the "/C" switch change sent the shell in crypt++.el
  back to the author.)

* Dired uses ls-lisp, which reports all files as being owned by the
  current user.  Need to dig through the security descriptor to extract
  the owner of the file (and the group?) using LookupAccountSid.

* Integrate the build for NT into the GNU config process once
  a decent shell becomes freely available

* Integrate networking.

* Fix Win95 subprocesses.
