display-time-show-icons-maybe's value is t
  -- a variable declared in Lisp.

Documentation:
Use icons to indicate the mail status if we're running under X and
XEmacs was compiled with xpm support

All we need is a little animated paperclip thingie that pops up,
wriggles around, bats it's eyes at us, and tries to be helpful.

(That will only make sense if you've seen M$ Office 97.)
