Hi, Ian.
The last Ubuntu emacs-snapshot was built 6 days ago, and it is now kept up to
date, and is also being worked on in Debian-unstable.

I did some searching a few days ago and some listserv claimed that "snapshot"
is slightly different from the general EMACS and is not just an early snapshot
of the general EMACS.
