Hi,
I have received this bug report, https://bugs.gentoo.org/661592, which is about a segmentation violation during the build process of xemacs 21.5.34. I managed to recreate the problem once(!) on one of my machines but after that I have not been able to get it again, sigh, although I have tried it a like 20 times or more.
I can't see that we have had this issue on the build bot either which uses the same machine I got the error on and does a lot of builds!?
Aidan: Have you seen anything like this? (With a hope that some recent development you have done has touched and fixed things that could cause segmentation violations in this old code base!?)
Yours

Hi,
I nave been banging a bit on vc-fossil.el from
<http://chiselapp.com/user/venks/repository/emacs-fossil/doc/tip/doc/index...>,
and got it to work with Xemacses "slightly-older vc.
Provided there is interest: What would be the procedure to include the
fuke with the XEmacs vc?
Cheerio,
hauke

Another possibly silly question arising from perusal of the great Mule
merge...
Is speed (or small linear factors in memory) ever actually a concern
nowadays? The whole deal of supporting multiple internal buffer
formats seems to be justified by speed for multi-lingual processing,
and there are various tricky things scattered around the rest of the
code to improve speed.
The last time I can remember being disturbed by XEmacs' slowness was
sometime in the mid 90s when I was running Lucid Emacs 19 on a 68040.
(The days when a full compile was a go-out-for-long-dinner job rather than
a you-may-just-have-time-to-make-coffee job.)
On the other hand, I don't do extensive non-English processing.
Do people find XEmacs noticeably slow in any normal usage pattern?
