Hi! I got a copy of the Emacs 18.55 distribution tape from MIT, and I can't seem to make an emacs that doesn't core dump. I'm on a SPARCstation300, w/ 24MBytes RAM, and lots of swap (6576/80176). I'm running SunOS 4.1, (which may be the problem because the equivalent MIT SPARCstation where I got the distribution from is running SunOS 4.0.3). The only modifications I've made to the distribution is to theconfig.h-dist file to make it config.h. #include "s-sunos4.h" #include "m-sparc.h" I get through the build-install script without any errors, however when I try to run emacs, I get a fatal error (6) and a core dump, which looks like this: maxwell% adb /usr/local/bin/emacs core core file = core -- program ``emacs'' SIGIOT 6: abort $c _kill() + 8 _abort(0xf,0x4,0xad584,0xc3570,0xad5fc,0x0) + 54 _malloc(0x1,0xd5c6c,0x0,0x1,0x10,0xc3560) + 120 _getpwent(0xd5c44,0x9d324,0xad400,0x61737377,0x2b000030,0x2b007061) + 1258 _getpwent(0xf7fff890,0xf7fff878,0xd2,0xf7fffc94,0xd5c08,0xd5c44) + 658 _getpwuid(0xd2,0xd2,0xad348,0x6d,0x0,0xd5c08) + 114 _init_editfns(0x0,0xf7fffdc4,0x0,0x0,0xf7fffe10,0xad34f) + e0 _main(0x1,0xf7fffdc4,0xf7fffdcc,0xa8400,0x0,0x0) + 3e4 $q Any help would sure be appreciated!
