Re: frequent 21.2b31 crashes on Irix

GE> If you start xemacs under gdb's control (as opposed to using gdb GE> post-mortem to analyse the core dump) that's exactly what I'm doing, i.e.: gdb `which xemacs` run continue <windows pop up, start vm, etc. etc.> GE> then you'll get the gdb prompt back as soon as the fatal signal GE> (ABORT, SEGV,...) is generated, before our signal handler (which GE> in due course would generate the lisp backtrace) is called. You GE> can get the lisp backtrace by either continuing execution from gdb GE> or by calling 'lbt' if you use our .gdbinit. ah, maybe that's the problem... I get the crash, do a where to get the C stack, see there's nothing in the term window, and just hit run again, rather than continuing... sorry to be so dense about this, but xemacs is a different beast from the stuff I usually debug... -JT
