I just built Emacs 26.1 on Centos 6 (RHEL 6.9). When I fire up the
executable with `src/emacs -Q` over X11 it shows an empty window with no
minibuffer. See the following screenshot:

I built Emacs without `gnutls`, but that should be possible. Do I miss
any essential libraries?
According to a stack exchange question
the issue might be related to the X-toolkit I'm using (GTK2). Does Emacs
26 not support GTK2? The X server I use is MobaXterm 3.0 on Windows 7
Enterprise. I cannot test with another X server.
The output of my `./configure --without-gnutls` is stored in a GitHub
gist:
https://gist.github.com/halloleo/46808e9574f375f1e320f5e13c068296. The
output of the `make all` is in this gist:
https://gist.github.com/halloleo/c4a4ac53c047d972b6f7b91a0240167f
## Notes:
1. The build runs fine in a terminal via `src/emacs -Q -nw` (**That’s how I generated the bug report output below!**)
2. I have built Emacs 25 on the same machine and it runs successfully
over X11.
