Greetings - Mike, thank you for upgrading XEmacs's JDE package. With a suitable 21.5 executable, I can again build all the XEmacs packages. I have observed a problem, however. If I try to build all the XEmacs packages using an XEmacs which has builtin gmp support (i.e. one configured --with-bignum=gmp), the "make bytecompile" step for the semantic package will chew up memory until either I or the linux kernel kills the XEmacs process. Here's the output from today's build at work (which I killed by hand): make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/build/xemacs-packages-2007-11-30/xemacs-packages/ede' [ -d semantic ] && make -w -C semantic bytecompile make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/build/xemacs-packages-2007-11-30/xemacs-packages/semantic' xemacs-21.5 -no-autoloads -vanilla -batch -eval '(setq stack-trace-on-error t load-always-display-messages t load-ignore-out-of-date-elc-files t load-show-full-path-in-messages t)' -eval '(setq load-path (list lisp-directory))' -l /usr/local/build/xemacs-packages-2007-11-30/package-compile.el -- cedet-common eieio xemacs-base xemacs-devel edit-utils speedbar texinfo fsf-compat cc-mode edebug ede sgml -- -eval \("push \"./wisent\" load-path"\) -eval \("push \"./bovine\" load-path"\) -l semantic-alias -l semantic -l semantic-debug -l semantic-grammar -l semantic-bovine -l wisent-comp -f batch-byte-compile auto-autoloads.el Loading /usr/local/build/xemacs-packages-2007-11-30/package-compile.el...

A 21.5 XEmacs without gmp can build the packages with no problem. If anyone has any insight into what's going wrong here, I'm happy to hear their speculation.
