I checked out Xemacs from the gtk-xemacs-21-2 branch and build under
Cygwin. I ran into two problems.
1) lib-src/gnuclient.c fails to build with a parse error before else at line
654.
I don't have X Windows libraries installed so there is no if for the
else.
It is easy to patch this by moving the else inside the two #ifdefs, but I
don't
think this is the correct solution. Before the addition of GTK support,
the
X support was always there even when build with an Xemacs that has no X.
It
seems that this should stay. There needs to be a way of asking for a
generic
display X or GTK as appropriate. I know zero about GTK so I can't
suggest
anything.
2) For the first time I see temacs looping when running auto-autoloads.el
This is
reproducible. I reran "make beta" on 21-2.45 loaded from tarballs and
this did
not hang.
