Hello,

Emacs 18.58.1 has recently been built for the sun4 machines in
our department.  I accessing emacs from a non-sun4 machine (either
VAX or 386sx) through Xwindows, the meta key apparently acts like 
'SPC META'.  This is, it inserts a space when depressed before 
the meta key command sequence executes.  This behavior is not 
observed when emacs is run locally on a sun4 machine with Xwindows.

I am not sure where this error originates, nor am I sure this is 
a bug; however, I would welcome any suggestions on how to correct
this uncritical but annoying phenomena.

Thank you,
Mike Wazenski
