Argh, when looking at what Emacs 21 does, I forgot that we actually
set the property in other compatibility code.  If you think that
checking for the property in `LaTeX-fill-delete-newlines' is useful,
please add the code from `fill-delete-newlines' I left out.

The code setting the text property in `LaTeX-fill-newline' should not
be removed because the text property is checked in
`fill-delete-newlines' and therefore is useful in Emacs 22 (the
upcoming release).

Okay.

Thank you and Ikumi for looking into this.
