Please take note: the changes I put into the dynamic linker on
November 29 have broken emacs. It dumps core immediately on start up.
Ironically, those same changes made it possible to get the stack trace
which pointed to the problem. :-O
You can make emacs work again by reverting your dynamic linker to the
version from November 25th. E.g., if you have the CVS repository:
cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/ld/rtld
cvs -q upd -Pd -D 'Nov 25'
make clean cleandepend
make depend
make
make install
I will look for a fix ASAP. Sorry for the hassle in the meantime.
John
