The default is to build with font backend disabled, so if you didn't _enable_ it, you are building without it. > Could you explain how exactly I would do that in gdb? >From the src directory: gdb ./oo-spd/i386/emacs.exe (gdb) break init_user_info (gdb) run -Q Then, when it stops in init_user_info, type: (gdb) until 619 (619 is the number of the line where it calls get_sid_sub_authority_count.) When it stops at line 619, type "step" repeatedly to step through get_sid_sub_authority_count, and see what happens there. If you compiled with optimizations, it could be that get_sid_sub_authority_count is inlined, and you will have difficulties stepping through it. If that happens, please recompile without optimizations (edit gmake.defs to remove the -U2 compiler switch, then run configure, make, make install to rebuild). > If I copy the source along with the binaries, will gdb be able to > find it and I can put a breakpoint in there? If it doesn't find the sources, use the `dir' command to tell GDB where to find the sources. This command accepts a name of a directory and adds it to the list of directories where GDB looks for sources. Btw, is that a 32-bit Vista or a 64-bit one?
