I tried to post this a few days ago and it didn't seem to make it, so here
goes again:

I've been having trouble trying to run a shell under emacs.  I get the
following error message when I do M-x shell:

          Process shell exited abnormally with code 1

I am running version 18.55.18 on a sun (a sun3, I believe).  The code
may have been ported over from another machine, so I don't know exactly
what roles that plays in the problem.  Older versions seem to be able to
run the shell OK (18.51.1 and 18.48.5).

Any help would be appreciated.
