Hi Jack, send-pr is no longer supported. Please use Help->Send Bug Report... or M-x report-emacs-bug as suggested in http://www.xemacs.org/Debug/index.html This will tell us enough about your XEmacs installation so that we should be able to help you. If XEmacs does not build or start up, please send any version and configuration information you have to xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org with any mailer as plain text (MIME attachments are OK, please don't send HTML mail). On linux type ulimit -c unlimited in the shell before starting XEmacs from it, else you might not get a core file. You crash information is not very useful since your XEmacs has been compiled without symbolic debug support and contains no symbol names or source line information.
