I have been attempting a port to Itanium HP-UX 11.23.
I have managed to change the configure etc. to successfully produce a
seemingly
valid bootstrap-emacs executable.
However, when it runs it immediately returns the error:

	emacs: Invalid function: run-hooks

This at a guess implies it is running the low level C functions but
appears to be
failing to find the Lisp function binding.
If anyone has any clues as to what could be wrong or things to try 
or where to look in the initialisation sequence please let me know.
The gdb environment on the machine unfortunately does not appear usable
at present, returning the unhelpful error:
	Error trying to get information from the dynamic linker.

I am also using gcc 4.3.3. I know that there is a port done by HP for
ia64 for version 22.3
but its configure program appeared to have been hacked to use HP's cc
compiler not gcc.

If I instead set CANNOT_DUMP 1, then I can get an undumped version that
opens an X Window,
but it suffers from initialisation issues, e.g. image-load-path is void
at start up
which is obviously wrong.

I noticed that XEmacs has a portable dump feature, which essentially
avoids rewriting
an executable file but instead stores the Lisp data to an xemacs.dmp
file next to the
executable. I managed to build xemacs 21.4.22 using it on the machine,
but I want FSF Emacs!

Thanks for any help,
Andrew Maguire


If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
For information about debugging Emacs, please read the file
u:/sw/WNT/x86/emacs/emacs-23.2/etc/DEBUG.
