[jas＠barbar jas]$ xemacs-21.1.10 -no-init-file
Fatal error (6).
Your files have been auto-saved.
Use `M-x recover-session' to recover them.
If you have access to the PROBLEMS file that came with your
version of XEmacs, please check to see if your crash is described
there, as there may be a workaround available.
Otherwise, please report this bug by running the send-pr
script included with XEmacs, or selecting `Send Bug Report'
from the help menu.
As a last resort send ordinary email to `crashes(a)xemacs.org'.
*MAKE SURE* to include the information in the command
M-x describe-installation.
If at all possible, *please* try to obtain a C stack backtrace;
it will help us immensely in determining what went wrong.
To do this, locate the core file that was produced as a result
of this crash (it's usually called `core' and is located in the
directory in which you started the editor, or maybe in your home
directory), and type
gdb /usr/local/bin/xemacs-21.1.10 core
then type `where' when the debugger prompt comes up.
(If you don't have GDB on your system, you might have DBX,
or XDB, or SDB. A similar procedure should work for all of
these. Ask your system administrator if you need more help.)
Lisp backtrace follows:

No GNU malloc in glibc 2.2 ???

What's up with the attached malloc report? Why doesn't the GNU libc
malloc work in Alpha Linux?
Config.log shows malloc detection apparently succeeding:

In order to save my hands, I am cutting back on my mail. I also write
as succinctly as possible -- please don't be offended. If you send me
mail, you _will_ get a response, but please be patient, especially for
XEmacs-related mail. If you need an immediate response and it is not
apparent in your message, please say so. Thanks for your understanding.

Hi Michael,
it's already part of the prog-modes package:
Library is file c:\XEmacs\xemacs-packages\lisp\prog-modes\verilog-mode.elc
It would be great if you could send regular patches to synch
verilog-mode.el in the prog-modes package with your latest stable
version.
You can acces all xemacs-packages via CVS.
There is also a web interface at cvs.xemacs.org.
Hope this helps,
Adrian

As an example try
http://www.infoworld.com/articles/hn/xml/00/07/06/000706hnfragment.xml
The document downloads fine --and lynx renders it--
however w3 throws up an empty buffer.

ANNOUNCEMENT: XEmacs patches repository
23 years, 9 months
Ben Wing
Ben Wing
I've created a central repository for patches that contain good features but
which can't currently be merged in, e.g. because they need fixup work. It's at
ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/patches
[also at http://ftp.xemacs.org/patches]
It includes, for example, the patch below.
All of you who have such patches floating around, please send them to me and
I'll add them.

In order to save my hands, I am cutting back on my mail. I also write
as succinctly as possible -- please don't be offended. If you send me
mail, you _will_ get a response, but please be patient, especially for
XEmacs-related mail. If you need an immediate response and it is not
apparent in your message, please say so. Thanks for your understanding.

Re: Xemacs question

What are the permissions on the .xpm files in
<PREFIX?/lib/xemacs-21.1.10/etc/toolbar/, where <PREFIX> is replaced by
your installation prefix. Everyone, not just root, needs read
permission for those files.
If this doesn't help, I suggest following up to xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org.
