bug#26982: 25.2; emacs crashes after lisp started

[Pete Bonasso <bonasso@traclabs.com>]

Alan,

Okay, I made emacs from HEAD, but the same problem occurs, and there are 
other things that are flakey (the Lisp version doesn't show and the 
menus don't have all the options (before I start lisp)), so I went back 
to the stable version.

But here's an interesting observation: on my macbook-pro I can do fn-10 
and the menus show up as a drop down in my emacs window -- and they all 
work!

So I guess that means the problem is related to the interface with the 
mac, maybe with xcode?
