I got epoch to run on a 720. I haven't fully tested it, but it
compiled and it ran.

Basically do the following things ....

1. apply patches for emacs 18.57 that can be obtained from /pub/Emacs on
   128.97.202.6 via anonymous ftp.
   (I applied them manually since I didn't know if epoch 3.2 is based on 57)

2. Here is the kluge I did to get temacs to not core dump ...
   In the subrouting SetBfp of the file buffer.c (line 854) change

        FROM:

        if (w)
          swb = NULL (selected_window) ? 0 : XBUFFER (w->buffer);

        TO:

        if (w && selected_window)
          swb = NULL (selected_window) ? 0 : XBUFFER (w->buffer);

 really don't know what drastic effects this might have, but it
 seemed reasonable and it doesn't core dump anymore!

 Good Luck,

 Jeff Mast
