Hmmm... Are you compiling with or without pdump?
I'm compiling without pdump but have seen similar crashes in
ALLOCATE_FIXED_TYPE during dumping from temacs. Alas those crashes
disappeared when I tried from gdb... very strange -- I will
investigate.
I think it is wrong that XEmacs is trying to do code conversion at
this point. Anyway the real problem seems to be that malloc_set_state
is failing..
this didn't appear in my crashes, they occured inside
init_symbols_once_early(). Looks like a random memory corruption to
me.
