A few days back I compiled 19.29 and installed it without any 
problems. The source code was obtained direct from prep.ai.mit.edu. The 
following configure command line was used:

./configure i386-unknown-freebsd --with-x

I have FBSDR2.1 with X11R6 installed. Back in the hazy early days I 
seem to remember having a link problem with _DYNAMIC. This would have 
been with FBSDR1.XX and emacs early 20's versions.

Check the screen output from configure very carefully. This program 
compiles and installs straight out of the box with no patches.
