Re: 21.4.8 segfaults

Daniel> make-frame(nil #<x-device on ":0.0" 0x2558>) SuSE is distributing the unreleased "Hannibal Lecter" version of GNU ld. It slices and dices the ELF objects, confusing our unexec procedure. Please send me the output of ld --version and I'll try to trap it in configure for future versions of XEmacs. To workaround, reconfigure with ./configure --pdump ... OR ./configure --ldflags='-z nocombreloc' ... If that doesn't work, please let us know, but the symptoms match (SuSE, crash in make-frame, no pdump or nocombreloc in Installation). -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN My nostalgia for Icon makes me forget about any of the bad things.
