   Does anyone know how to build GNU emacs dist-18.55 on an Apollo?  I
   have yet to build a version that works properly.
   Here is some info on the apollo it was built on :
    Domain/OS kernel(7), revision 10.2, October 13, 1989  12:51:22 pm
   Running :  bsd4.3

   I built it with "m-apollo.h", "s-bsd4-3.h", X11.

   I received an error during link :

   "size for section .aptv in tparam.o is not multiple of required
   alignment."

   The link completed anyway, but running it from a vt100 reports that
   "...vt100 is not powerful enough...".

Just don't run emacs in a vt100 window, start it in a domain window or
(much better), use it as an X client. Screen updates in a vt100 emulator
window are extremely slow.  The link error showed up here too, but the
executable has worked fine for some months now (DN3000's and DN2500's running
10.2). The only complaint I have had sofar from users is that sometimes emacs
hangs for a couple of seconds, eating 80% cpu time, and doing select calls.
But this always clears up after a few seconds. Any hints anyone?
