Yes.  A big one.  lemacs 19.10 has 5 bugs in its
file-name-handler-alist code.  There is a file of patches included
in the efs tar file.  You need to apply them, or efs won't even
compile.

Yes.

No.  dired-7 will load the lucid menus.  However, they are the
standard lucid menus, so there will not be entries for commands which
exist only in dired-7.  It would be great if anybody wants to
contribute a version of dired-lucid.el specifically for dired-7.
We'll certainly distribute it with future versions.
