I run into strange trouble while compiling Epoch 4.2 + emacs 18.58.
The compilation itself went fine, with only minor complaints about
some string comparisons. But, when the resulting file "temacs" was
run, it dumped core with a fatal error message 10.

I managed to fix the problem by linking the file with archive
libraries (I was using shared libs initially). Changing -lc_s to -lc
made it possible to run the temacs and complete the build. However,
that was not enough. When the resulting epoch or emacs were run, they
would again dump core with a fatal error message 11 ! Next, I relinked
the executables removing -lX11_s and substituting -lX11. That finally
helped and now I have emacs/epoch, that is built almost entirely with
archive libraries - over 1,2 M for an editor!!! Sigh! A real
memory&resource hog ;-(, but otherwise so cool ;-).

The question: Is the above problem a bug in emacs/epoch or is it a bug
in the shared libraries on Interactive?

System data:

Epoch version: 4.2, emacs 18.58 + 8-bit patches
System: Interactive unix 3.0, SysV 3.2 with X11R5 pl22 + Xfree86-1.2
Compiler: gcc-2.3.3
Optimizer flags: -O2 -m486

Any hints would be appreciated!
