Get it from:
	ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/beta/xemacs-20.3/

Patch kit is in two pieces:
	xemacs-20.3-b2-20.3-b3.patch.gz
Main patch kit.
	xemacs-20.3-b2-20.3-b3.extras.tar.gz
Additional binary files that cannot be patched up.  Untar from the
toplevel directory after patching.

The full kit is in three pieces:
	xemacs-20.3-b3.tar.gz
Main source code.
	xemacs-20.3-b3-elc.tar.gz
Bytecompiled Lisp files (freshly built)
	xemacs-20.3-b3-info.tar.gz
Info tree

There is a change in the bytecompiler (defcustom now gets special
treatment) that should not have user visible consequences other than
eliminating some of the `free variable' nag warnings.  There is also a 
change in which files are dumped.  If you patch up, be sure to run a
`find . -name \*.rej -print' before doing the `make beta' to make sure 
all the patches were applied.

Note that all of the files that were removed are available in The Attic:
	ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/Attic/

New packages with this release are savehist.el and ssh.el.  Ssh.el is a
freshly updated version with custom support courtesy of Noah Friedman.
Savehist.el was recently posted by Hrvoje Niksic on Usenet.
