Since always probably (at least 21.1).

Thanks for the report.

Let's not worry about obsolete things (one more reason to remove it).

Fixed.

I don't think this matters, since it is preloaded, so it's impossible to
change the C-x mapping before this point, but I changed it anyway.

Let's not worry about code that has never been uncommented.

Changed.

I think it is appropriate to leave this as-is.

Obsolete, ignoring.

Fixed.
