Running Epoch 4.0p1 on Iris 4D w/ Irix 4.0.1.

I think Epoch is overzealous in warping the mouse cursor.  For
example, when I "remove-screen" the current screen, epoch warps the
mouse cursor (and focus) to some other screen on my display.  I don't
want it to!  Nor do I want it to warp the mouse cursor when I create
another screen.  I want complete control over the mouse cursor.

The function "cursor-to-screen" seems to be included in a great many
functions in epoch-lisp/epoch.el.  Perhaps it is mandatory in some of
the screen functions.  (I don't know of any, but I haven't read the
code thoroughly.)  In any case, I want to inhibit the warping behavior
I just described.

I will go through epoch-lisp/epoch.el and remove cursor-to-screen from
places I don't want it, unless someone can suggest a better way.  For
future versions of Epoch (or Emacs v19, if that's to be the next
"version" of Epoch), I strongly recommend that this be something the
user can customize.
