I could tell you, but it wouldn't really help because it isn't a system
that emacs knows about anyway :-). (It is far less trouble to apply the
patches to each releases configure scripts than to try to find all the
lawyers I need to submit the patches permanently to the FSF).
However, here is what it reports:
In GNU Emacs 21.2.2 (powerpc-concurrent-powermax, Motif Version 2.1.0)
of 2002-08-28 on amber2
configured using `configure --prefix=/usr/tools/emacs-21.2 --with-x
--with-x-toolkit=motif --x-libraries=/usr/lib --x-includes=/usr/include'
Important settings:
value of $LC_ALL: nil
value of $LC_COLLATE: nil
value of $LC_CTYPE: nil
value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil
value of $LC_MONETARY: nil
value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil
value of $LC_TIME: nil
value of $LANG: nil
locale-coding-system: nil
default-enable-multibyte-characters: t
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
All I know for sure is that if I debug temacs and stop at the beginning
of the unexec routine, I can look at various local variables
(like Vmessage_buffer_name, etc) and see reasonable values.
If I debug emacs and look at the same global variables, they
contain trash.
