One minimal option is to run emacs locally and simply mount the remote files with sshfs - then at least for editing you can use the latest and greatest emacs. Loading and saving can often be a bit slower than local obviously. This also breaks compile integration — although even there an ssh wrapper around a make (or whatever) call would probably work - I just haven’t tried it.
