   "M-x shell" and "M-x gdb" both exit with "Process shell exited abnormally
   with code 1".


I've had that happen.  Takes quite a hunt to find the reason, but
solution is pretty simple.  Emacs is unable to find the program named
"env" which normally lives in the emacs-lib/etc directory.  Either you
didn't install right or you did a 'make clean' when you shouldn't
have.  Try a "make env" in the epoch/etc directory.
