It gets deleted somewhere along the make run. Afterwards only auto-autoloads.elc is left. So if I run the make again, the second run complains: "Could Not Find D:\misc\xemacs-21.1.10\lisp\auto-autoloads.el" As to why xemacs crashes, it does after all look exactly like the problem I'm having with the development versions. I built with debug info, launched xemacs by hand, and got the backtrace. Its again stack overflow because of an apparently indefinately recursive call stack. What throws me off is the malloc(unsigned int 0), at call time it should be 91... I must be missing something. malloc(unsigned int 4096) line 661 + 6 bytes malloc(unsigned int 0) line 605 + 10 bytes xmalloc(unsigned int 91) line 392 + 9 bytes allocate_lisp_storage(unsigned int 91) line 495 + 9 bytes alloc_lcrecord(unsigned int 91, const lrecord_implementation * 0x011a0020 _lrecord_lstream) line 531 + 9 bytes allocate_managed_lcrecord(int 689121824) line 2569 + 19 bytes Lstream_new(const lstream_implementation * 0x011a0130 _lstream_resizing_buffer, const char * 0x011a0830) line 239 + 16 bytes make_resizing_buffer_output_stream() line 1331 + 15 bytes emacs_doprnt_string_va(const unsigned char * 0x0116581c, int -1458550780, int -1, char * 0x00033154) line 837 + 5 bytes warn_when_safe(int -1458418676, int -1458419660, const char * 0x0116581c) line 5026 + 22 bytes malloc_warning(const char * 0x0124cd90) line 360 + 28 bytes check_memory_limits() line 97 + 11 bytes align(unsigned int 4096) line 443 morecore(unsigned int 4096) line 490 + 9 bytes malloc(unsigned int 4096) line 661 + 12 bytes malloc(unsigned int 0) line 605 + 10 bytes xmalloc(unsigned int 91) line 392 + 9 bytes allocate_lisp_storage(unsigned int 91) line 495 + 9 bytes alloc_lcrecord(unsigned int 91, const lrecord_implementation * 0x011a0020 _lrecord_lstream) line 531 + 9 bytes allocate_managed_lcrecord(int 689121824) line 2569 + 19 bytes Lstream_new(const lstream_implementation * 0x011a0130 _lstream_resizing_buffer, const char * 0x011a0830) line 239 + 16 bytes make_resizing_buffer_output_stream() line 1331 + 15 bytes emacs_doprnt_string_va(const unsigned char * 0x0116581c, int -1458550780, int -1, char * 0x00033300) line 837 + 5 bytes warn_when_safe(int -1458418676, int -1458419660, const char * 0x0116581c) line 5026 + 22 bytes malloc_warning(const char * 0x0124cd90) line 360 + 28 bytes check_memory_limits() line 97 + 11 bytes align(unsigned int 4096) line 443 morecore(unsigned int 4096) line 490 + 9 bytes malloc(unsigned int 4096) line 661 + 12 bytes malloc(unsigned int 0) line 605 + 10 bytes xmalloc(unsigned int 91) line 392 + 9 bytes allocate_lisp_storage(unsigned int 91) line 495 + 9 bytes alloc_lcrecord(unsigned int 91, const lrecord_implementation * 0x011a0020 _lrecord_lstream) line 531 + 9 bytes allocate_managed_lcrecord(int 689121824) line 2569 + 19 bytes Lstream_new(const lstream_implementation * 0x011a0130 _lstream_resizing_buffer, const char * 0x011a0830) line 239 + 16 bytes make_resizing_buffer_output_stream() line 1331 + 15 bytes emacs_doprnt_string_va(const unsigned char * 0x0116581c, int -1458550780, int -1, char * 0x000334ac) line 837 + 5 bytes warn_when_safe(int -1458418676, int -1458419660, const char * 0x0116581c) line 5026 + 22 bytes malloc_warning(const char * 0x0124cd90) line 360 + 28 bytes check_memory_limits() line 97 + 11 bytes align(unsigned int 4096) line 443 morecore(unsigned int 4096) line 490 + 9 bytes malloc(unsigned int 4096) line 661 + 12 bytes malloc(unsigned int 0) line 605 + 10 bytes xmalloc(unsigned int 91) line 392 + 9 bytes allocate_lisp_storage(unsigned int 91) line 495 + 9 bytes alloc_lcrecord(unsigned int 91, const lrecord_implementation * 0x011a0020 _lrecord_lstream) line 531 + 9 bytes allocate_managed_lcrecord(int 689121824) line 2569 + 19 bytes Lstream_new(const lstream_implementation * 0x011a0130 _lstream_resizing_buffer, const char * 0x011a0830) line 239 + 16 bytes make_resizing_buffer_output_stream() line 1331 + 15 bytes emacs_doprnt_string_va(const unsigned char * 0x0116581c, int -1458550780, int -1, char * 0x00033658) line 837 + 5 bytes warn_when_safe(int -1458418676, int -1458419660, const char * 0x0116581c) line 5026 + 22 bytes malloc_warning(const char * 0x0124cd90) line 360 + 28 bytes check_memory_limits() line 97 + 11 bytes align(unsigned int 4096) line 443 morecore(unsigned int 4096) line 490 + 9 bytes malloc(unsigned int 4096) line 661 + 12 bytes malloc(unsigned int 0) line 605 + 10 bytes xmalloc(unsigned int 91) line 392 + 9 bytes allocate_lisp_storage(unsigned int 91) line 495 + 9 bytes alloc_lcrecord(unsigned int 91, const lrecord_implementation * 0x011a0020 _lrecord_lstream) line 531 + 9 bytes allocate_managed_lcrecord(int 689121824) line 2569 + 19 bytes Lstream_new(const lstream_implementation * 0x011a0130 _lstream_resizing_buffer, const char * 0x011a0830) line 239 + 16 bytes make_resizing_buffer_output_stream() line 1331 + 15 bytes emacs_doprnt_string_va(const unsigned char * 0x0116581c, int -1458550780, int -1, char * 0x00033804) line 837 + 5 bytes warn_when_safe(int -1458418676, int -1458419660, const char * 0x0116581c) line 5026 + 22 bytes malloc_warning(const char * 0x0124cd90) line 360 + 28 bytes check_memory_limits() line 97 + 11 bytes align(unsigned int 4096) line 443 morecore(unsigned int 4096) line 490 + 9 bytes malloc(unsigned int 4096) line 661 + 12 bytes malloc(unsigned int 0) line 605 + 10 bytes xmalloc(unsigned int 91) line 392 + 9 bytes allocate_lisp_storage(unsigned int 91) line 495 + 9 bytes
