Has anyone been testing the vte accessibility with these patches?  I 
would have some concerns there, as we (Sun) are not using these patches 
at the moment.

However, we *are* using patches for the following bugs, which we 
consider vital for accessibility:

153405 <http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153405> 	cri 	Urg

In particular the patches for 153405, 138653, and 156161 fix several 
crasher scenarios.  Bug 113590 prevents the implementation of a key ATK 
interface.

I consider vte to be unmaintained.
