Please re-read what I wrote: I also said that this doesn't necessarily
mean there's no bug in Emacs. And when I wrote about some positive
evidence that the bug is in the OS, I really meant to say ``the bug is
ONLY in the OS''.
We don't care about Vista bugs here, but I think we do care about
Emacs.
