(I tried posting this to gnu.emacs.bugs, but it never showed up.)

I set up config.h with s-bsd4-3.h and m-pmax.h.  Ran build-install.
It failed trying to compile unexec.c.  I compared with my 18.55
installation and saw that it should have used unexmips.c.  Couldn't
find anything different in config.h, s*.h, m*.h, and *akefile.  I
edited xmakefile to use unexmips and typed "make" in $EMACS/src.  The
build finished successfully.

Then I tested the newly built 18.57 and began deleting unnecessary
files (FSF: please remove some of the dead wood from $EMACS/etc, it's
embarassing) in preparation for building a standalone, compact
distribution.  Ran M-x shell and got "Loading shell...done", but Emacs
seems to hang with the cursor after "done".  Control-G had no visible
effect. 

Surely I'm doing something wrong.  Two major problems like these
wouldn't have escaped notice.  I've successfully built 18.57 under
SunOS 4.1 on a SPARCstation.
