Starting from emacs 18.59, clash detection is possible even in systems
with short (i.e. limited to 14 characters) file names.  To enable this
feature, it is necessary to put the following lines in the relevant
m-xxxx-.h file:

#define	SHORT_FILE_NAMES
#define CLASH_DETECTION

Unfortunately, none of the affected m-xxx.h files in the emacs 18.59
distribution contain those lines.  Perhaps it would be nice if all
those who work on machines with short file names sent a patch for
their m-xxx.h file.

I think also the NEWS file should mention this.
