Thank you for checking it. So we don't need to update the config files. Good. > Is there a method to test for that limitation on a 512 MB machine ?

In general, there isn't but in this specific case there is: attach your Emacs process to a debugger and check the value of the variable `gdb_use_lsb'. It's actually used in emacs/src/.gdbinit so that the gdb macros that analyse Lisp_Object values can do it correctly in the various different tagging cases. Stefan
