The OP there believes it's a local issue, I suspect bad optimizations. This is a regressive situation with XEmacs (and possibly GNU Emacs, too) because we abuse casts a lot in production builds. Try --use-union-type in .configure. Alexander> #7 0x08091d17 in execute_rare_opcode () Aaargh. Please try to use -g builds. No -g/stripped executables mean we haven't any idea what's going on unless we've seen a real backtrace elsewhere. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN My nostalgia for Icon makes me forget about any of the bad things.
