+--with-mule             Compile with Mule (MUlti-Lingual Emacs) support,

+                        the Motif XmIm* routines (when available).
+                        NOTE:  On some systems bugs in X11's XIM support
+                        will cause XEmacs to crash, so by default,
+                        no XIM support is compiled in, unless running
+                        on Solaris and the XmIm* routines are detected.

 Debugging options:
 

---debug                        Compile with support for debugging XEmacs.
-                       (Causes code-size increase and little loss of speed.)

 --error-checking=TYPE[,TYPE]...
 --error-checking=TYPE[,TYPE]...

-                       Compile with internal error-checking added.
-                       Causes noticeable loss of speed.  Valid types
-                       are extents, bufpos, malloc, gc, typecheck.
---error-checking=none  Disable all internal error-checking (the default).
---error-checking=all   Enable all internal error-checking.
---memory-usage-stats   Compile with additional code to allow you to
-                       determine what XEmacs's memory is being used
-                       for.  Causes a small code increase but no loss
-                       of speed.  Normally enabled when --debug is given.
---no-doc-file          Don't rebuild the DOC file unless it's explicitly
-                       deleted.  Only use during development. (It speeds
-                       up the compile-run-test cycle.)
---use-union-type       Enable or disable use of a union, instead of an
-                       int, for the fundamental Lisp_Object type; this
-                       provides stricter type-checking.  Only works with
-                       some systems and compilers.
