Your feedback is necessary for us to know on which platforms the pretest has been tried. If you have the tars from the previous pretest, and you have the \`xdelta' utility, you can instead download the much smaller <ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/emacs-$OLD-$NEW.xdelta> You can use a command like $ xdelta patch XDELTA PREVIOUS-TAR CURRENT-TAR to generate the new tar from the old one, where XDELTA is the xdelta file you downloaded, PREVIOUS-TAR is the tar file from the previous pretest, and CURRENT-TAR is the name of the tar file you downloaded. Information about xdelta can be found on the GNU ftp site, in /non-gnu/xdelta.README.
