;;; fix up the load-history to make it possible to use find-function
;;; on functions which are in dumped lisp files, even if XEmacs was not
;;; dumped at the place where it is finally running. 
;;; 
;;; Suggested by Jeff Mincy <jeff@delphioutpost.com>, see:
;;; 
;;; http://list-archive.xemacs.org/xemacs-design/200204/msg00365.html
;;;
;;; Test whether this works by evaluating (find-function 'next-line)
;;;
