CVS Emacs vs. Mac OS X

CVS Emacs vs. Mac OS X

[Joe Corneli]

I had trouble makeing the CVS version of Emacs on under Mac OS X
10.3.2 running Apple's X11 client.

Perhaps Emacs can't find some needed fink-installed files? That is
the usual problem.

Help/advice is appreciated.

After the Savannah compromise, there have been system changes.  This
caused regex.h and regex.c to go away.

In the meantime, the problem has been corrected.  Please try "cvs up
-dP"  and try again.

It is useful to read the emacs-devel list if you want to use the CVS
version of Emacs.  Yes, it's some amount of traffic, but with Gnus and
scoring it should be manageable.

Sort it into a group of its own, that's what I do.  Customizing
nnmail-split-methods is easy enough.
