I don't think this has anything to do with portable dumping or DLL
conflicts. The fix that was in 21.1.9 was later backed out because it was
causing other problems. Currently it's not possible to use the MKS Toolkit
shell under the native XEmacs on Windows.

shouldn't see this problem. I really have no clue as to what the problem
is. Maybe its some dll clash - but I thought windows was supposed to cope.
