           I am running SparcStation-2, SUN OS 4.1.1, SUN C v1.1

           everything compiles and dumps fine until we hit the ascii emacs section.
           I did the following:
           1) set config.h for sunOS and sparc
           2) ln -s ../src/config config

           but this dumps core during the ascii building phase

           ../temacs -batch -l inc-vers

   Same configuration, same problem. I had already a working epoch version,
   so I did 

   ln -s /elsewhere/epoch /epoch-dir/src/temacs          (hopefully...)
                                     ##############
   and the thing compiled fine. But they should locate the bug.

OK, folks, Epoch 4.2 compiles out of the box, without changes (except
for ascii/config.h), on my Sparcstations (three different ones), with
stock cc:

[marca_ttyp0@ash /home/kaplan/marca] uname -a
SunOS ash.cs.ui 4.1.2 2 sun4c

(marca@void 75) uname -a
SunOS void 4.1.2 1 sun4m

(marca@zaphod 89) uname -a
SunOS zaphod 4.1.1 1 sun4c

So, those of you having problems building on this platform should (1)
tell me exactly what you did after untarring the Epoch distribution
and (2) also send me a copy of the appropriate config files; (3) also,
dbx any coredumps and send me the traceback.

Thanks,

Marc
