If XEmacs does not build or start up, please send any version and configuration information you have to xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org with any mailer as plain text (MIME attachments are OK, please don't send HTML mail). On linux type ulimit -c unlimited in the shell before starting XEmacs from it, else you might not get a core file.
