[ I don't know what was the purpose, but indeed that release doesn't
prove that XEmacs development is still ongoing: If you look at the
commit history you'll see that there were *very* few commits in that
new release. Not sure if it deserves to be described as pulling
a zombie into real life, tho. ]

+1
Especially since we're on the VM mailing list 🙂
For that reason the patch I sent months ago (which mainly aims to make
the code a bit more futureproof by enabling `lexical-binding` and then
addressing compiling warnings) doesn't drop XEmacs support.
