+*** New variable 'auto-revert-avoid-polling' for saving power.
+When set to a non-nil value, buffers in Auto-Revert mode are no longer
+polled for changes periodically. This reduces the power consumption
+of an idle Emacs, but may fail on some network file systems; set
+'auto-revert-notify-exclude-dir-regexp' to match files where
+notification is not supported. The new variable currently has no
+effect in 'global-auto-revert-mode'. The default value is nil.
