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.
