>Description:
Having installed Emacs.app (because that promises
anti-aliased fonts, and it works nicely on my Mac) from
ports, with a quick
cd /usr/ports/editors/emacs.app; sudo make install clean
I couldn't figure out how to start it, or find
documentation on how to start it. The closest that I
got (at least it didn't complain about being unable to
find shared libraries) was the command:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/GNUstep/System/Library/Libraries /usr/local/GNUstep/System/Applications/Emacs.app/Emacs
which produced the following messages:
2006-12-05 17:38:20.951 Emacs[72983] Warning - mouse/pointer seems to have more than 5 buttons - just using one to five
Fatal error (11)
If I run that with --help, I get a help message and
a core dump. The back-trace doesn't seem terribly
helpful, but the top of it says:
#0 0x000000000058ba9a in Fcons (car=0, cdr=0) at alloc.c:2764
2764 alloc.c: No such file or directory.

>How-To-Repeat:
Build and run as above.
>Fix:
Not sure how to fix. Happy to help debug. My
work-around is going to be changing back to regular GNU
emacs...
