Update whitespace.el - comment out the :version string, since it seems to have trouble with XEmacs 20.4 (user reported bug). Xemacs doesn't create group if this is present. Bug verified. Not yet determined the problem.

;;; Commentary:

;; This mode provides an Emacs interface to the UNIX spell(1) program.
;; Entry points are `spell-buffer', `spell-word', `spell-region' and
;; `spell-string'.

;; See also ispell.el for an interface to the ispell program.

This function might remove text-processor commands.
nil means don't alter the text before checking it."
