Since a long time emacs FTBFS due to unknown reasons. The latest version building was Debian 24.5+1-5, from 27 Nov 2015. Even before successful builds were by pure luck. One suspicious issue is that emacs use sbrk() for memory allocation, right? Notably sbrk() is not fool-proof as implemented for Hurd in glibc. Use of sbrk is found in files alloc.c, unexelf.c and gmalloc.c, which are all compiled. Avoiding compilation of ralloc.c with 0001-Default-REL_ALLOC-to- no.patch did not improve the situation. First time I compiled emacs 25.1 from upstream it passed, second time not. Compiling Debian versions almost always fail. Moslty the build fails with temacs failing to execute: Killed. In my opionion it's a real loss not to gave a modern version of emacs25 available for use in GNU/Hurd (not everybody use vi). Do anybody of you have an idea on how to solve this problem? Are there patches available already to try with? Thanks in advance :)
