Re: Emacsen segfaulting on startup



Hi,

sadly, this bug is reproducible.

FWIW, on a fresh installed NetBSD/i386 running 6.1.3 I just did a build
(from source) of pkgsrc-current emacs22-22.3nb34 and it works fine for me.

I had an older box which was running netbsd 3, 4, 5 and perhaps even 6.0 without problems regarding emacs. I installed 6.1.1 and xemacs did not work, I just tried this evening. I updated to 6.1.3 and xemacs still segfaults (and it even is the old binary I built in July 2013).

The difference of this box is that I build my packages, while the other laptop used binary packages. At least a native compile should exclude CPU-related problem, like a wrong default setting to an unsupported cpu model. My laptop has an original 686 cpu, this one has a Nehemiah processor which, if I remember correctly, is a full-686 processor.

I think this is a mix between annoying for me and embarassing for my favourite OS!!!
