xemacs 21.2.17 on Solaris 7 64bit hangs
The following message is a courtesy copy of an article
that has been posted to sun.emacs as well.
Compiled xemacs 21.2.17 on Solaris 7 in 64bit mode using Sun Workshop 5.0.
Now it occasionally hangs while trying to load cus-edit.el,
So I decided to re-compile lisp files.
Compilation of lisp files hangs while compiling lisp/cus-edit.el:
