Hi,

  Just wanted to let you all NTXEmacs users out there that. The following
problem no longer crashes pyshell on NTXEmacs. Just download the latest
release at:

ftp://ftp.ese-metz.fr/pub/xemacs/win32/xemacs-21.2b15-win32.zip

"This is a bulk version of the latest xemacs compiled natively for
 win32 platforms. In order to use it, please make EMACSPACKAGEPATH
 point at the XEmacs directory. -Fabrice Popineau"

  It also fixes a lot of other problem as well. So, pls upgrade to this June
5 release. Still Beta, but a lot better.
