Anyone wanna hazard a guess as to what's going on here. --- --- Here's the C back trace that it produces... --- --- ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: Linux eicq 2.4.17 #1 Sat Dec 22 16:00:27 EST 2001 i686 unknown ./configure '--extra-verbose' '--dynamic=yes' '--with-gtk=no' '--with-gnome=no' '--with-toolbars=yes' '--with-wmcommand=yes' '--with-athena=next' '--with-menubars=lucid' '--with-scrollbars=athena' '--with-dialogs=athena' '--with-widgets=athena' '--with-png=yes' '--with-sound=native,noesd' '--with-modules' '--with-site-lisp=yes' '--with-site-modules=yes' '--pdump' '--with-mule' '--debug' '--error-checking=all' '--memory-usage-stats' '--use-union-type' '--with-clash-detection' '--site-libraries=/usr/local/pgsql/lib' XEmacs 21.5-b4 "bamboo" configured for `i686-pc-linux'.
