Re: Anybody got a working carbon xemacs sitting around?

Skip's probably seen my reply on c.e.x, but for the benefit of xemacs-beta, I've done ktrace with my working build, and I see everything that Skip describes AFAICT.

The latter is the entire build in a directory named test-carbon2. Both have ktrace.out in the carbon subdirectory. I suspect the internal volume ids will be different on your system, so it may take some fooling around to get a useful diff. Somebody else had a pointer to a binary somewhere, Italy I think.
