vm-8.0.13 mapvector possibly collides with xemacs built-in function

Bug description:
vm-8.0.13 introduced a defun for mapvector in vm-folder. This definition
appears to stomp upon the function built into xemacs already:
`mapvector' is a built-in function
(mapvector FUNCTION SEQUENCE)
This became evident trying to invoke latex-mode on a buffer after having
upgraded from vm-8.0.12 to vm-8.0.13. This resulted in an error saying that a
mapvector usage had an incorrect argument.
Changing vm-folder.el such that it defines and uses vm-mapvector appears to
have fixed this behavior.
I was attempting to revert this change to obtain a back trace of the error, but
I am currently unable to reproduce the exact one I am experiencing.
Nevertheless, it would seem unwise to defun a duplicate of a built-in function.
