I'd like to add the following: o xemacs crashes for me quite often in either gc or make_lisp_buffer_stream. (Already reported). I have a sneaking suspicion that it's a gcc 2.95.2 problem. After recompiling with Sun CC 5.0, I haven't run into it today in the last few hours, whereas it was happening as often as every 30 minutes with gcc 2.95.2. I'll have to try with gcc 2.7.2.2 too. Perhaps a note in the PROBLEMS file? o This one I haven't reported yet. When fontifying a buffer, the progress bar moves very very slowly and fontification takes forever (> many seconds). However, if I just move the mouse around in the window, the progress bar zips by very quickly, and fontification finishes in less than a second. o A possibly related problem: I start up xemacs and gnus from the command line and have it iconified. It gets stuck somewhere loading up something. As soon as I deiconify it, it zips right along.
