>Description:
xemacs 20.4 hangs sooner or later (most ofter sooner) using up all cpu
resources, and has to be killed. 

Here's a stack dump using 'script':
Script started on Sat May  2 15:07:01 1998

datan:~#xemacs -nw

Lisp backtrace follows:

  # (unwind-protect ...)
  sit-for(0)
  byte-code("À  ÂÃ#sÅ ebÆÇ!È u  Ã?" [add-timeout startup-message-timeout #<compiled-function (from "startup.elc") (ignore) "...(5)" [nil ... ...] 3> nil timeout startup-splash-frame sit-for 0 next-command-event unread-command-event] 4)
  # (catch timeout ...)
  # (unwind-protect ...)
  # bind (timeout)
  command-line-1()
  # bind (command-line-args-left)
  command-line()
  # (unwind-protect ...)
  normal-top-level()
  # (condition-case ... . error)
  # (catch top-level ...)
Terminated


This happens even using -nw switch, so I doubt it's MOTIF-related? 
I've tried compiling with and without MOTIF_STATIC, and also tried the
binaries from xemacs.org; same result. 20.3 worked OK; always got 
"No ExtNode to pop!" or similar when exiting, apart from that all was OK.

Can it be the cyrix processor?

?

Recompiling without any HAVE_MOTIF? I'll try it, but doubt it will have any effect...
