As always I have split out the generic parts. This also includes the expand-file-name usage changes suggested by Hrvoje. I will apply this to cvs. andy 1999-05-30 Andy Piper <andy(a)xemacs.org> * msw-faces.el (mswindows-font-regexp): new font matching regexp for use by the font menu. * msw-font-menu.el: new file implementing mswindows specific font-menu behaviour. (mswindows-font-menu-registry-encoding): new function mirroring x version. (mswindows-font-menu-junk-families): ditto. (hack-font-truename): ditto. (mswindows-font-regexp-ascii): ditto.

If I understand it correctly. It works because the glibc startup code works by calling this hook somewhere. Who says the Solaris startup code will do that? Jan P.S.

But I don't think this is really relevant here. I did send the patch for discussion and further testing and thought the information in it might become relevant. Looking at Wolfram's analysis of the situation, XEmacs should segfault the same way as FSF-Emacs does --- but AFAIK it doesn't. Either the analysis is wrong, we're just lucky with XEmacs or XEmacs is just better;-).

core dump in XtDestroyWidget() on HPUX 10.20 20 years

David S. Miller

core dump in XtDestroyWidget() on HPUX 10.20 I have seen XEmacs core dump while taking dialog boxes down. Specifically, when a dialog box is completed with a manual entry and a carraige return, such as File => Save As... type the name and press enter. This does not seem to happen when mouse selecting OK. It doesn't always happen on the first try, but I can reliably reproduce this by the third or fourt try. I'll try to include all relaveent information. I have reproduced this error on the following versions 20.4, 21.0.67, and 21.1.2. The included data is from 21.1.2. Version 20.2 DOES NOT express the error. What else should be included to make this report complete? dsm(a)fc.hp.com Xemacs version 21.1.2 expresses a core dump under the following conditions: HPUX 10.20 in Japanese SJIS mode $LANG=ja_JP.SJIS +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ configure options +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ./configure hppa1.1-hp-hpux10.20 \ --extra-verbose \ --compiler="/opt/ansic/bin/cc" \ --x-includes="/usr/include/X11R6 -I/usr/include/Motif1.2_R6" \ --x-libraries="/usr/lib/X11R6 -L/usr/lib/Motif1.2_R6" \ --error-checking=none \ --dynamic=no \ --with-x11=yes \ --with-menubars=lucid \ --with-scrollbars=motif \ --with-dialogs=motif \ --with-xmu=no \ --with-xim \ --with-mule=yes \ --with-cde=yes \ --debug \ --cflags="+DA1.1 +DD32 +O2 +Onolimit +Odataprefetch +Ovectorize +Ofastaccess +Oprocelim" ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ .emacs contents ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ (set-language-environment 'Japanese) (set-pathname-coding-system 'shift_jis-unix) (set-default-buffer-file-coding-system 'shift_jis) (set-buffer-file-coding-system-for-read 'shift_jis) (set-keyboard-coding-system 'shift_jis) (set-terminal-coding-system 'shift_jis) (set-default-coding-systems 'shift_jis) ;; I can reproduce the core with NO .emacs file ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ core dump runtime output (machine named hellcat) ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ hellcat, (10:27)> ./xemacs Fatal error (11).

Configure failure 20 years

Charles G Waldman

I updated two things at the same time and I don't know which one is to blame. I updated my copy of the 21.1 sources from CVS. I also have a brand-new glibc, built from the 2.1.1 glibc sources. Now when I try to configure XEmacs I get: buffalo:xemacs-21$ ./configure checking host system type... checking whether ln -s works... yes checking the configuration name Configuration name missing. Usage: /usr/local/src/xemacs-21/config.sub CPU-MFR-OPSYS or /usr/local/src/xemacs-21/config.sub ALIAS where ALIAS is a recognized configuration type. All that I get in config.log is this: This file contains any messages produced by compilers while running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake. configure:747: checking host system type configure:761: checking whether ln -s works configure:998: checking the configuration name Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hi Xemacs-Patchers, I thought the following might be of interest to you. We (glibc developers) received a bug report about emacs-20.3 with glibc 2.1.1. I can't reproduce this with XEmacs 21.0p2. Nevertheless the patch looks fine (I'm just running a mule-enabled XEmacs 21.0p2 with it) and should work with glibc 2.0 and 2.1 (I only tested with glibc 2.1.1).

Terminology 20 years

Charles G Waldman

How come it's M-x remove-directory to get rid of a directory, but M-x delete-file to do the same thing to a file? Just wondering...
