Three reasons:
1. 21.x traverses far more package directories than 20.2.
2. More auto-autoloads.el files to load.
3. This change which fixes a bug:
1998-08-11 Michael Sperber [Mr. Preprocessor] <sperber(a)informatik.uni-tuebingen.de>
* find-paths.el (paths-file-readable-directory-p): Created and
used.
To be honest (unless something other than stat is spending all that
time), I don't know how to optimize things further. (Maybe someone
with a kernel trace that actually gives useful results could check one
of these days.) Any change to reduce the number of package
directories is necessarily going to compromise the flexibility of the
package system.
I think I know how to reduce the time spent on 2., even though I don't
know if that'll improve overall startup time. This would be part of a
general package system overhaul.
I personally consider current startup time well within reasonably
bounds. I've reached the end of my rope as far as improvements are
concerned.

I cannot duplicate this in the current version. Selection stuffs have
been edited fairly heavily. Does the current code still have a problem?

Patch: Promoting characters to 31 bits (for discussion)
26 years
Stephen J. Turnbull
Stephen J. Turnbull
Recently Tomo Morioka has been doing some work on using UTF-8 as the
Mule string and buffer encoding, complementary to Olivier Galibert's
work on use of UCS characters (including Unicode).
The appended patch swaps the Lisp integer with the Lisp character
representations, so that characters have 31 bits of precision. This
allows Lisp characters to represent the entire UCS-4 code space. I
don't see that loss of one bit of precision in integers hurts; where
it matters (time values, etc) we need 32 bits anyway, and classical
Emacsen didn't have even 30 bits.
The patch has one known bug (== lack of ./configure code; I just
compile with "-DBASKIN_ROBBINS_CHAR" in CFLAGS, but I think this
change should just be made and be done with), and a couple of points
I'm unsure about.
First, in src/data.c and src/print.c I changed "switch (XTYPE(obj))
..." to "if (LRECORDP(obj)) ... else if (CHARP(obj) ..." so that these
control structures don't depend on the representation of Lisp
character and Lisp integer types. I think the efficiency hit should
be negligible, but I'd like a qualified opinion.
Second, I tracked down all uses of Lisp_Type_* and am fairly confident
that these are correct in the patch. I have this nagging feeling I'm
missing something that I should be verifying, though.
Third, I defined an enum member in terms of a previously defined
member of the same enum (Lisp_Type). Is this portable? It makes it
clearer what's going on, but I could use a comment instead.
The changes to src/alloc.c, src/data.c, and src/print.c are
unconditional. The changes to src/lisp.h, src/lisp-union.h, and
src/lisp-disunion.h are #ifdef'd with BASKIN_ROBBINS_CHAR. If that is
not #define'd, the current MINIMAL_TAGBITS behavior is preserved.
As I mentioned above, I think we should Just Do It; UCS-4 is coming.
Comments?
1999-06-22 Stephen J. Turnbull <turnbull(a)sk.tsukuba.ac.jp>
* data.c (Ftype_of), print.c (print_internal): Substitute use
of predicate macros (eg INTP) for enum Lisp_Type values.
* alloc.c, lisp.h: Move definition of Lisp_Type_Int to lisp.h.
* lisp.h, lisp-union.h, lisp-disunion.h: Allow 31-bit
characters, 30-bit integers when #ifdef BASKIN_ROBBINS_CHAR
(otherwise reversed == standard MINIMAL_TAGBITS behavior).
Lisp_Type_Wider_Bit substituted for Lisp_Type_Int_Bit (applies
to characters when they are 31 bits).
Lisp_Type_Char_{Even,Odd}: new enum Lisp_Type members.
Remove uses of [CON]CHECK_NONRECORD.
* lrecord.h: #if 0 definition of [CON]CHECK_NONRECORD.

This is my first go-round with building a release from CVS, so keep
your fingers crossed.
Get XEmacs 21.1.3 from:
ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/xemacs-21.1/xemacs-21.1.3.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/xemacs-21.1/xemacs-21.1.3-elc.tar.gz

Acadia is a US National Park located in Maine. For more information,
see: http://www.nps.gov:80/acad.
Here is the list of patches which have been applied since 21.1.2; the

Not at all. Quite some effort and list traffic went into eliminating
duplicate files.

XEmacs 21.1 on Linux Alpha?
26 years
Karl M. Hegbloom
Karl M. Hegbloom
Is anyone building XEmacs 21.1 on an Alpha Linux machine? I just
tried to build it on faure.debian.org, and it fails to dump. It says
it cannot find the .bss or somesuch. Any clues?

Something is eating the SIGCHLD's. Back then it seemed related
to tooltalk+gcc (disabling tooltalk/workshop support has always solved it for
me). However since I switched to 'cc' the problem also went away.
That it also occurs with cc is new to me.

In my case the problem was that the XEmacs signal handler was never
called. If you run under gdb you see that the signal is being
delivered. So I guess something is installing its own signal handler
and/or messing with the signal masks.

zombies on Solaris 2.5[.1] with 21.1.3
26 years
Gunnar Evermann
Gunnar Evermann
I seem to remember that there were some problems with zombie
subprocesses on Solaris before. I couldn't find anything in the
list-archives. Was this ever understood and fixed?
Anyway, when using AucTeX or igrep I sometimes (but not always) see
processes like this:
ge204 13667 13239 0 0:00 <defunct>
ge204 13239 26782 1 15:45:36 pts/2 0:55 xemacs-21.1
Should I start looking where the signal is lost? Any hints?
I have seen this under 21.0.67 as well.

Always setting the keyboard focus would work. I don't know what the
implications of this would be. I guess this means openwound is x116.5 maybe?
In fact can you verify what version of X11 it is and I'll stick some
#defines in.

Lookup, a search interface
26 years
Keisuke Nishida
Keisuke Nishida
Hi,
I am writing an elisp program to use electronic dictionaries within
Emacs. I would like to distribute it as a binary package for XEmacs.
What should I do for that?
I am writing this program to use various dictionaries in the same way.
It can currently handle several kinds of dictionaries, such as EPWING
(a dictionary format used in Japan), DICT protocol (RFC 2229), and
some free dictionaries (e.g., Jargon File, FOLDOC, VERA) directly.
Although I have been writing this program mainly for Japanese, I suppose
this is useful for everyone who loves Emacs :) The current version of
my program, Lookup, is available from the following site:
http://openlab.ring.gr.jp/lookup/
Note that most of the documents are written in Japanse. I am now
working on translating them into English, and I hope the next release
of this program will be helpful to you. (By the way, I rarely hear
about this kind of software except in Japan. Don't you use electronic
dictionaries?)
Anyway, is there any documents explaining how I can make a binary
package of Lookup for XEmacs? I am a newbie in this mailing list, and
I could not find enough information on the page http://cvs.xemacs.org.
thanks,
-- kei
