Subject: less is more

Regretably, the latest xemacs configure uses more to deal with configure 
  --help.  I'm sure that isn't the only piece of *Nix software that 
assumes the existence of more.

I fixed it, of course, by ln -s /usr/bin/less /usr/bin/more.

We might reasonably include such a symlink in our distribution.  (Then 
there should also be ln -s /usr/man/man1/less.1 /usr/man/man1/more.1)
