Actually, the "correct" fix is not to set kanji-flag for non-japanese
versions, but to do this:

*** teris-orig	Fri Sep 15 16:09:10 1989
--- src/elisp/getris.el	Fri Sep 15 11:28:04 1989
***************
*** 48,52
  
  (defvar getris-block-string
!   (if (and (boundp kanji-flag) kanji-flag) "\242\243" "[]")
    "*String for getris block.  Must be width of two column.")

  (defvar getris-block-string
!   (if (and (boundp 'kanji-flag) kanji-flag) "\242\243" "[]")
    "*String for getris block.  Must be width of two column.")
  

The boundp function expects a symbol name, not the value of the symbol.

Also, where is the missing boss-* functions? (I assume they're in the
commented out '(require boss) module)...
