Quoting my mail to the list,

While it builds and runs fine on NetBSD/i386, I have xemacs SIGSEV
during the build on amd64 while dumping. This happened off and on for
21.4.22, too.

Hm - I only found an INSTALL file with the sources...
I have attached the build log, and a gdb stacktrace with symbols.
Please let me know if I can provide anything else.
The make log include the contents that gets captured in the
Installation file. For your reference, in the build directory, the
configuration process builds a file name "Installation" which
describes the configuration options used.
I suggest you configure with the --pdump option; in my experience that
path gets a lot more use these days than the old dumping code. I
thought, somehow, that "-z combreloc" required the portable dumper,
but it may not. In any case, try using --pdump and see if that clears
up your segv.

My first mail on the subject had

I am in the process of updating the pkgsrc editors/xemacs package, and
I wonder whether you have ever looked at its patches?

<ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/current/pkgsrc/editors/xemacs/patches/>
I downloaded all the patches from the ftp site.
Thanks,
Vin

This appears to help, indeed.
With a "--pdump" build, there is an additional file that gets installed
as "xemacs-21.4.23-54ee212e.dmp" (with a variable hash, it seems). What
is its functionality? Is it needed? The changeable name is a bit of a
headache for package management.

Good. They should have comments at the top, but that's WIP. ;)
Cheerio,

Hm - in the meantime, I have found
% fgrep -3 -n ".dmp" Makefile.in.in
429- do (cd $${subdir} && $(RM) -r RCS CVS SCCS \#* *~) ; done
; \
430- else true; fi
431-#ifdef PDUMP
432: ${INSTALL_DATA} src/${PROGNAME}.dmp
${bindir}/${PROGNAME}-${version}-`src/${PROGNAME} -sd`.dmp
433-#endif
434-#ifdef WIN32_NATIVE
435- ${INSTALL_PROGRAM} src/${PROGNAME} ${bindir}/${PROGNAME}
%
So I'll narrow my question down to: What is the significance of the
output of "src/${PROGNAME} -sd"? Is the string mandatory, or would
"xemacs.dmp" be found, too?
Cheerio,
hauke

I found a way to accomodate during packaging for the dynamic filename,
so the issue is moot.

The .dmp file contains the preloaded Lisp as a linkable binary image.
The link-loading is not your usual OS "dlopen", it's XEmacs-specific.
On most POSIX systems and Windows, this file is included in the
"xemacs" or "xemacs.exe" binary, so the separate .dmp file is
unnecessary. This is controlled by the --with-dump-in-exec; try that
and see if the binary works.
We should also fix the configure script.

Correct. I believe 21.4 requires the dump file but 21.5 does not.

Sean

Ah, OK. Unfortunately for your 21.4 users, I doubt Vin would accept a
back port.

That's alright, I was able to accomodate for the variable filename in
the package.
