That's not the change I was talking about. I was talking about this
one:
2002-11-20 Markus Rost <address@hidden>
* Makefile.in (setwins_almost): Renamed from finder_setwins.
(custom-deps): Use it.
(finder-data): Adjust to that name change.
This is where custom-deps started using setwins_almost. Before that,
it was only used in finder-data (under a different name, but the name
is not what bothers me).
I can understand why finder-inf.el can live without the term
subdirectory: there should be no optional packages in there. But
custom-deps is quite another matter, I think.

x-select-enable-clipboard is an important user option. We shouldn't
miss it, I think.
