Hi, After consulting the XEmacs INSTALL and PROBLEM files, I am unable to proceed with building XEmacs on an AIX machine. My ulimits: % ulimit -a time(seconds) unlimited file(blocks) unlimited data(kbytes) 4000000 stack(kbytes) 4000000 memory(kbytes) 4000000 coredump(blocks) 100000 nofiles(descriptors) unlimited % uname -a AIX c2n6 3 5 00C885E24C00 powerpc unknown AIX I've recompiled XEmacs code with the following settings/flags in an attempt to get more information: CC=xlc_r ./configure --with-gcc=no --error-checking=all --debug=yes After make halts again attempting to do "Testing for Lisp shadows ..." I manually recreated the xemacs executable so that I can run the debugger. % ./temacs -nd -batch -l ../lisp/loadup.el dump and re-ran the command that caused the SEGV % xemacs -batch -vanilla -f list-load-path-shadows Segmentation fault (core dumped) Exit 139 dbx xemacs core Type 'help' for help. warning: The core file is not a fullcore. Some info may not be available. [using memory image in core] reading symbolic information ... Segmentation fault in . at 0x2020200 0x02020200 warning: Unable to access address 0x2020200 from core 0x20... are space characters which suggests a bad pointer. This is all I have. The core file is extremely small ('not a fullcore') % ls -la src/core -rw-rw-r-- 1 we24uf g06 7984 Mar 16 16:00 src/core In fact, just invoking 'xemacs' without arguments is sufficient for a SEGV to be generated. I ran temacs autotest feature... it didn't blow up. Most tests completed okay or were skipped. My google-fu didn't find anything particularly applicable to this situation. Does anyone have any suggestions for me to try to get more information as to what might be wrong or get me past this hurdle? Thanks! _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
