OK, thanks for letting me know that at least my version of
18.55 is probably correct given that my x-* completions are
correct and word counts look OK.  (Thanks to tale@turing, and
karney@CCC.)

Maybe I should have started with a description of what I'm trying to do
and ask why it isn't happening as I expected it to.

What I want to do is customize my key mappings under X windows
emacs 18.55 (compiled on a Sun4, being X-served to a Visual 
X-terminal).  From gray@lucid.com I got the clue to use the
x-rebind-keys function and put the following in my startup
(.emacs) file:

    (x-rebind-key "Right" "Control_L" "\ef") 
			; ctrl-right-arrow = forward word

The weirdness that provoked my first question is that I'm
getting this message when I startup:

	"Symbol's function definition is void: x-rebind-key"

Now, is that weird?  Or normal?  What's the problem?
