I had a look at the diff between 1.20.2 (which we have right now) and
1.21, and the only noticeable delta is the change of a bufgfer size in
mesage.h, the rest of the delta being the removal of the generated
autostuff.

So we can quite safely backport that single change.

I'll send a patch in a moment.

Yann E. MORIN.
