+A number of things do not work yet:
+
++ Emacs does not respond correctly to C-g under certain circumstances.  
+  Sending the Emacs process a SIGINT externally will cause it 
+  to interrupt.  This is due to the architecture of OSX's 
+  Window Manager.
+
++ Support for certain image types (such as XPM) is not as extensive as 
+  on other plaforms. 
+
+If your Mac is connected to the Internet, report bugs by typing `M-x
+report-emacs-bug' or by choosing the entry `Send Bug Report...'  in
+the `Help' menu.  This will send the bug report to the address
+emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org.
