Now emacs builds again, thank you.

BUT: the resulting binary crashes (segfault) on start up.
Interestingly enough: the crash only happens when it is started
interactively, so:

  % emacs  -batch -eval '(message "Emacs is alive...\nVersion: %s" emacs-version)'

works and prints: 

  Emacs is alive...
  Version: 22.0.96.2

(I think otherwise building Emacs would have failed anyway.)

Details:

I will happily provide any additional needed information on request (I
have full configure and build logs available for example).
