In GNU Emacs 19.25.1 of Fri Aug  6 1994 on guitar (mips-mips-riscos4.52)

In installing emacs I used the following options:
        MACHINE-CONFIGURATION=mips-mips-riscos --with-x-toolkit
        CC=gcc (version 2.6.0)

And I mananged to install emacs on my system after fix the following problems:

        * ./lib-src/profile.c should be compiled with "-lbsd" option because the
          use of gettimeofday().

        * ./src/sysdep.c, ./src/dispnew.c and ./src/xterm.c should be compiled 
          with the option -DHAVE_SELECT

        * ./src/xfns.c should be compiled with the option 
          -DHAVE_XSCREENNUMBEROFSCREEN to avoid conflict with routines in 
          X-Window library.

        * In ./src/process.c line 398, I don't know why it seems the macro IRIS
          is defined, and the variable ptyv cause an undeclared error. I get 
          around this by editing the program, but that does not seem an elegant
          solution.

        * ./src/gmalloc.c should be compiled with the option -DMEMMOVE_MISSING.

        * Sometimes make doesn't try to build temacs and just scan the config
          files and say they are untouched.

When I use the installed emacs, I found the following problems:

        * Emacs can't distinguish Backspace from Delete key.

        * On a Sun SparcStation 2 with type 4 keyboard and running SunOS 4.1.1,
		  Emacs can't distinguish Backspace from Delete either.

        * On the same Sun workstation, Emacs accept f1 key as C-H.
