Hi,
After consulting the XEmacs INSTALL and PROBLEM files, I am unable to
proceed with building XEmacs on an AIX machine.
My ulimits:
% ulimit -a
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) 4000000
stack(kbytes) 4000000
memory(kbytes) 4000000
coredump(blocks) 100000
nofiles(descriptors) unlimited
% uname -a
AIX c2n6 3 5 00C885E24C00 powerpc unknown AIX
I've recompiled XEmacs code with the following settings/flags in an attempt
to get more information:
CC=xlc_r
./configure --with-gcc=no --error-checking=all --debug=yes
After make halts again attempting to do "Testing for Lisp shadows ..." I
manually recreated the xemacs executable so
that I can run the debugger.
% ./temacs -nd -batch -l ../lisp/loadup.el dump
and re-ran the command that caused the SEGV
% xemacs -batch -vanilla -f list-load-path-shadows
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Exit 139
dbx xemacs core
Type 'help' for help.
warning: The core file is not a fullcore. Some info may
not be available.
[using memory image in core]

Segmentation fault in . at 0x2020200
0x02020200 warning: Unable to access address 0x2020200 from core
0x20... are space characters which suggests a bad pointer. This is all I
have.
The core file is extremely small ('not a fullcore')
% ls -la src/core
-rw-rw-r-- 1 we24uf g06 7984 Mar 16 16:00 src/core
In fact, just invoking 'xemacs' without arguments is sufficient for a SEGV
to be
generated.
I ran temacs autotest feature... it didn't blow up. Most tests completed
okay or were skipped.
My google-fu didn't find anything particularly applicable to this
situation. Does anyone have any suggestions for me to try to get more
information as to what might be wrong or get me past this hurdle?
Thanks!
