Okay, I have to admit, that both Stefanie> - athena/athena3d - are linked against the Stefanie> neXTaw-lib. What should I do Stefanie> in order to get a running XEmacs with w3/gnus? I found that what happened here is that XEmacs compiled with athena flat headers, but then run-time linked against xaw3d. There are incompatiblities... on startup, XEmacs would print messages to stdout telling me that some structure sizes are wrong, and to try relinking. It crashed a lot. When I used a LD_PRELOAD telling it to load flat athena, it worked again. I editted /etc/ld.so.conf to put the xaw3d AFTER the standard X libraries, ran ldconfig, and now it links against flat xaw without the LD_PRELOAD. Maybe we should try explicitly building with xaw3d/nextaw, or whatever and see if it works then.
