This is all very experimental, though. Configure with `--pdump' to -try testing it. NOTE: it is expected that `make' will fail after -dumping `xemacs.dmp'. This is because Makefiles have not yet been -modified to not expect `temacs' producing an `xemacs' executable. You -can try it out by simply running `src/temacs'. If it starts without -failure, the portable dumping worked. - -#### NOTE: the portable dumper is not really usable yet, because the -state of built-in variables is not yet saved. Olivier promised to fix -it. Nag, nag. +try testing it. NOTE: the Makefile hackery needed to support portable +dumping might be unfinished at the time of writing this. If `make' +fails after writing `xemacs.dmp', you can still try running `temacs'. +The failure can be due to Makefiles bogusly expecting `temacs' to +produce an `xemacs' executable. #### Has this been fixed?
