Many Emacs developers don't read this forum, so they will never see your report. > Even though I'm building it out of the box, I tried > > #define SYSTEM_PURESIZE_EXTRA 30000000 > > to no avail. The problem you see has nothing to do with SYSTEM_PURESIZE_EXTRA. What Emacs is trying to tell you is that when it tried to load file.el, it found that file to be more than 128MB, the maximum size of a buffer Emacs can handle. What you need to figure out is how come files.el, which is only about 170KB, causes Emacs to think it's much larger. I don't have any idea why this would happen, except if something went _very_ wrong when you downloaded the CVS version. Please look closely at files.el and see if it has some large piece of junk appended to it. Deleting that file and doing a "cvs up -would bring you the current versions of all the files from CVS, and fix the problem. If the above doesn't help, please post your report to emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org.
