Fixes from Dave Love for W3 and PSGML entries.

If you want to stick with the Cygwin FTP client, you can work around
this problem by putting this in your `.emacs' file:

 (setq ange-ftp-ftp-program-args '("-i" "-n" "-g" "-v" "--prompt" "")


* The latest released version of the W3 package doesn't run properly
with Emacs 21 and needs work.  However, these problems are already
fixed in W3's CVS.  The patch below is reported to make w3-4.0pre.46
work.

Some users report they are unable to byte-compile W3 with Emacs 21.
If the patches below don't help to resolve your problems, install the
CVS version of W3, which should be compatible with Emacs 21.

* On AIX, if linking fails because libXbsd isn't found, check if you
are compiling with the system's `cc' and CFLAGS containing `-O5'.  If
so, you have hit a compiler bug.  Please make sure to re-configure
Emacs so that it isn't compiled with `-O5'.

This could happen if you use /bin/c89 as your compiler, instead of
the default `cc'.  /bin/c89 treats certain warnings, such as benign
redefinitions of macros, as errors, and fails the build.  A solution
is to use the default compiler `cc'.

* The PSGML package uses the obsolete variables
`before-change-function' and `after-change-function', which are no
longer used by Emacs.  Please use PSGML 1.2.3 or later.

* The LDAP support rely on ldapsearch program from OpenLDAP version 2.

* Some versions of the W3 package released before Emacs 21.1 don't run
properly with Emacs 21.  These problems are fixed in W3 version
4.0pre.47.
