I am not sure what the -3 means, but 21.4.9 is a gamma version from August
2002. 21.4.12 is the stable version from January 2003 (i.e. the latest
version in the stable directory on the xemacs web site). But the official
release version is 21.1.14. The 21.1.x development tree was frozen with
that version. I don't think there was ever a "stable release" version that
compiled on Mac.
By the way, I don't have fink, but I do have 21.5.11 (beta) in the latest
CVS compiled and running fine on my PB (OS X 10.2.4 X11 0.3) system.
