I have just finished porting the changes I made for 3.8 and early 3.9 to this
version.  They implement termcap usage of the cursor keys, function keys f0
to f9, Home, End, Page Up, and Page Down (mostly for XENIX on the latter
ones).  It works on Sys V.2 (3b2/300), 4.2BSD (Sun 3/50), and XENIX.  I don't
have access to anything else, I'm afraid.

There are a couple of other mods I've made, first to add ks/ke (the appli-
cation mode ESC O business for VT100's) and I've changed the bind.c code
so that it looks FIRST for .emacsrc in the current directory, then in $HOME,
finally in the $PATH entry.  This seemed more logical to me as I reserve a
directory for WP, a directory for C, a directory for FORTRAN and so forth.

I'd be happy to post the diffs after I make sure they are fairly stable, if
people would like.  Let me know.

(P.S. I have not added the SG fix to make it work with magic cookies)
