Package: emacs,ns

On GNUstep, Emacs.app does not load the user init file.

Probably related, but it also doesn't inherit the environment when run
from a terminal; the value of process-environment right after startup
is "TERM=dumb".  Doing M-x ns-grabenv doesn't help much:

process-environment's value is 
("_=/usr/bin/printenv" "SHLVL=1" "PWD=/home/yavor/src/emacs/src" "TERM=dumb")

(This is when started with -nw, the only difference otherwise is the
confusing "DISPLAY=keel.southway-varna.com".)

`printenv | wc -l' returns 29.

If Emacs was built in a chroot and installed in a system-wide
location, e.g. /usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Applications, then M-x gnus
tries to create /News at the root of the filesystem.  Many commands do
not work, and Emacs becomes useful only after manually setting some
variables with M-x setenv and loading .emacs.

(P.S.: The `23.0;' in the subject line is the figure exactly as
generated by M-x report-emacs-bug.)

In GNU Emacs 23.0.60 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, NS gnustep-gui-0.14.0)
 of 2008-11-12 on keel.southway-varna.com
