Problem builiding xemacs-21.5.29 on HP-UX Itanium

Hi all

I have some progress on this:

I can get xemacs-21.5.29 to build with this configure line:

./configure --with-system-malloc --with-site-libraries=/usr/local/lib/hpux32

(Both with --with-rel-alloc and --with-dlmalloc I get problems like I described below. And with --with-debug-malloc it does not even compile.)

However when running the c-tests, I get this:

Testing /home/hpj/work/xemacs/xemacs-21.5.29-ia64/tests/automated/c-tests.el...

Fatal error: assertion failed, file tests.c, line 440, !memcmp ((error_check_string (string, "tests.c", 440)->data_ + 0), ext_mac, (error_check_string (string, "tests.c", 440)->size_))

However this is not a new problem I see.

I found this message using google: http://tracker.xemacs.org/XEmacs/its/issue523. (Had to use the cached version this site does not seem to be working at the moment).

So I made this change:

*** src/tests.c.orig    Fri Jun 26 15:19:27 2009
--- src/tests.c Fri Jun 26 15:48:33 2009

                      LISP_STRING, string,
!                     intern ("iso-8859-1"));
    DFC_CHECK_DATA_COND_EOL (XSTRING_DATA (string),
                           XSTRING_LENGTH (string), int_foo, ext_mac);

--- 435,441 ----

    TO_INTERNAL_FORMAT (DATA, (ext_mac, sizeof (ext_mac) - 1),
                      LISP_STRING, string,

    DFC_CHECK_DATA_COND_EOL (XSTRING_DATA (string),
                           XSTRING_LENGTH (string), int_foo, ext_mac);

Now got this for the c-tests - although C.iso88591 is a valid locale according to locale -a :

Have a nice weekend.

Hi all

I am trying to build xemacs-21.5.29 on HP-UX Itanium

My configure command is:   configure --with-site-libraries=/usr/local/lib/hpux32 --with-debug

gmake gives

./temacs -nd -no-packages -batch -l /home/hpj/work/xemacs/xemacs-21.5.29/src/../lisp/update-elc.el
gmake[1]: *** [NEEDTODUMP] Segmentation fault (core dumped)
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/net/w72037/home/hpj/work/xemacs/xemacs-21.5.29/src'
gmake: *** [src] Error 2

gmake check-temacs gives:

w72060 .. xemacs-21.5.29/src> gmake check-temacs
./temacs -nd -no-packages -batch -l /home/hpj/work/xemacs/xemacs-21.5.29/src/../lisp/loadup.el run-temacs -vanilla -batch -l /home/hpj/work/xemacs/xemacs-21.5.29/src/../tests/automated/test-harness.el -f batch-test-emacs /home/hpj/work/xemacs/xemacs-21.5.29/src/../tests/automated

gmake: *** [check-temacs] Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Since I can not get hold on gdb or wdb, try to get a backtrace with adb. Result:

w72060 .. xemacs-21.5.29/src> adb temacs core
adb> c
     error_check_lcrecord_list + 0x80
        alloc_managed_lcrecord + 0x50
adb: error: No load module descriptor for IP '0x00000000400271d0'.
adb> q

Can you give me any hints on getting further? Any changes to configure options or something else.

kind regards
