xemacs crash
Dear friends,
after upgrading my OS from openSUSE 13.1 to 13.2, xemacs crashes
immediately after invocation. Here is the printout:
ukd＠iridium:~> architex/bin/architex UUU
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Fatal error (11).
Your files have been auto-saved.
Use `M-x recover-session' to recover them.
Your version of XEmacs was distributed with a PROBLEMS file that may
describe
your crash, and with luck a workaround. Please check it first, but do
report
the crash anyway.
Please report this bug by invoking M-x report-emacs-bug, or by selecting
`Send Bug Report' from the Help menu. If that won't work, send ordinary
email to `xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org'. *MAKE SURE* to include this entire
output from this crash, especially including the Lisp backtrace, as well as
the XEmacs configuration from M-x describe-installation (or equivalently,
the file `Installation' in the top of the build tree).
*Please* try *hard* to obtain a C stack backtrace; without it, we are
unlikely
to be able to analyze the problem. Locate the core file produced as a
result
of this crash (often called `core' or `core.<process-id>', and located
in
the directory in which you started XEmacs or your home directory), and type
gdb /usr/bin/xemacs core
then type `where' at the debugger prompt. No GDB on your system? You may
have DBX, or XDB, or SDB. (Ask your system administrator if you need help.)
If no core file was produced, enable them (often with `ulimit -c unlimited')
in case of future reoccurrence of the crash.

some background information: "ArchiTeX" is a text processor that abuses
XEmacs to write/edit XML documents, and then produces LaTeX and
ultimately PostScript code.

Can you make sense out of this?
