Hi, I tried bzr revision r113270 on my FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE (amd64), and it segfaulted during bootstrap process, (the compilation of files in "lisp" directory). It generated a core-file lisp/bootstrap-emacs.core which has more than 3-million (that's when I lost patience) recurring stack frames like following: #v+ #3367385 0x00000008080742c6 in pthread_mutex_lock () from /lib/libthr.so.3 #3367386 0x000000000066d846 in _malloc_internal (size=1016) at gmalloc.c:901 #3367387 0x000000000066d8c1 in malloc (size=1016) at gmalloc.c:925 #3367388 0x000000000066ec30 in calloc (nmemb=1, size=1016) at gmalloc.c:1492 #3367389 0x00000008080764bd in ??
