Your suggestion doesn't work here because this is a volunteer project and there is no guaranteed way to identify people interested in individual userland commands. However, if your suggested patch is clearly correct then I'm sure someone will pick it up and apply it. Some of the code you mention isn't even maintained by the FreeBSD Project. If you have a bug in emacs, you should send your submission to the FSF. - Murray
