I made a few changes to make it compile at all under my Linux installation; the diff against CVS is attached. The various bits and pieces of output, including the build logs and the gdb backtrace of the error, are included. If I can do anything further to assist in the testing, let me know. Oh, it's worth noting that I bumped the beta version up to 200 for this testing; I didn't want to tromp my working XEmacs when I installed... :) One point of note, at a user level, is that you seem to define the coding system `utf8'. Gnus, the one real user of UTF-8 coding that I know of, looks for coding systems named either `mule-utf-8' or `utf-8'. It would be good to ensure that, at the least, XEmacs and GNU Emacs were in sync on this; I believe (but can't verify) that the `utf-8' style is used there... So, the differences between the version I used, which builds as far as temacs, and your branch in CVS: The Installation file: The output of the make process: The gdb output showing the stack when the failure occurred: Daniel -- I read about an Eskimo hunter who asked the local missionary priest, "If I did not know about God and sin, would I go to hell?
