Hi,
Someone else said they can't reproduce it, and you yourself report
later (http://emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?
bug=984) a bug when emacs is being run on GNUstep, so is it safe to
close this report?
As far as the loading-every-file-when-bootstrapping, I think this is a
general bug with CANNOT_DUMP handling -- so that should probably be
reported separately.
thanks

Maybe on Muck OS. On GNU/Linux, I can reproduce it always on several
hosts. With CVS 2008-10-03 19:00 UTC:
Loading bindings (source)...
Loading files...
Loading cus-face...

It happens on random files.

I build it this way:
./configure --with-x=no
make bootstrap
./configure --with-ns
make
make install
But it is only usable with `Emacs -nw'.

No.

I see. This is a practical problem, as my Pentium II was building
Emacs for about a day until the failure. Even on a powerful machine,
it takes hours.

I have the same problem, also on random files, on 32-bit GNU/Linux.
On x86_64, I can't even get that far, since it segfaults trying to
make the autoloads, but I think that may be a different problem, so I
will file a separate bug for that.

That's just what CANNOT_DUMP means. The files that would normally be
dumped have to be loaded every time.

I can build it fairly quickly, if someone can suggest what debugging
info would be useful.

I managed to get bootstrap-emacs to run under gdb while it compiles
files. So far, the segfaults are always in alloc.c, mostly in
mark_object at line 5540 or 5434, but once in mark_interval at 1508.
I have attached 4 backtraces from one `make bootstrap' (running under
gdb meant make carried on after a file failed to compile).

retitle -1 Segfaults in alloc.c within gdb on gNewSense
thanks
(Please merge back the bug if it turns out to be the same issue.)

Oddly enough, these are almost equivalent to the problems I see
(unrelated to bootstrapping) under gNewSense DeltaH (Base 1.14.1, GUI
0.12.0). I was about to report the problem separately, after more
investigation.
On gNewSense with GNOME (with the default Metacity WM), I basically
experience the same behaviour as described in #984.
Under Window Maker and the GNUstep art backend, Emacs starts, the
frame is drawn and I can perform some basic operations. (There are
other major issues, but let's leave them out for now.)
If I open xterm and start Emacs from within gdb, it always crashes
(under both GNUstep backends) with a backtrace very similar (if not
equivalent) to the ones Glenn posted.
Now the odd: If under wmaker I start Emacs 22.3, and from there start
Emacs.app either with M-x gdb or M-x shell; gdb ..., I get the same
backtrace as in #984.
I should probably mention that gnustep-back has fairly complicated WM
management code, and support for all window managers in the wild is
not guaranteed. However, applications should not crash if they're run
under a poorly supported WM (Window Maker is the best supported, and
Metacity is claimed to be supported). Personally, I was surprised to
see Emacs.app crashing under GNOME while running under wmaker. All
other GNUstep apps run fine under GNOME. It is either a subtle bug in
Emacs.app, or a bug in GNUstep that is exposed by a complex app such
as Emacs.
Hopefully I'll followup with more details to the cloned bug as soon as
I figure out the logic behind all of this weirdness.
