Dear guru,

I recompiled all gnu tools that I get from src.doc.ic.ac.uk

On this machine (sparc5 - solaris2.3), I recompiled emacs-19.25 and
emacs-19.27.

	- emacs-19.25 is linked with the openwindow shared libraries and
	- emacs-19.27 is linked with the X11R6(patch-level-4) shared libraries.

I do not assume that emacs has a bug, because I recompiled it on
several Linux machines and under SunOS 4.1.3. But I always recompiled
emacs with X11R5.

Let me explain to you the weird bug:
-----------------------------------

Sometimes, when I start emacs (with the DISPLAY variable set), I get
the following message: "Can't open Display ...", then the X server
hangs ! I have to kill it from another terminal. This bug does not
always happen when I start emacs.

I will try out to track down the bug. I believe that X11R6 might be
buggy.

By the way, this afternoon, I recompiled emacs-19.27 with the openwin
shared libraried and I have no problems.

I getting the new patch (pl5) for X11R6...

Sincerely yours,

Thierry.
