The above feature is the least important one among what I gave in the
previous mail.  Probably I'll just disable it and I won't provide a
separate patch.

I'll start with committing a few changes that are currently included
in the Mac port but actually not specific to it.

What should I do for the copyright lines at the beginning of the
port-specific files?  Currently, the first lines in src/mac.c look
like:

  /* Unix emulation routines for GNU Emacs on the Mac OS.
     Copyright (C) 2000-2008  Free Software Foundation, Inc.
     Copyright (C) 2009-2015  YAMAMOTO Mitsuharu

because this file is derived from the corresponding one in Emacs 22
where the Carbon port (the precedessor of the Mac port) was a part of
the standard distribution.

The copyright lines in a file that are not derived from the Carbon
port look like

  /* Definitions and headers for AppKit framework on the Mac OS.
