AFAIK, there's no prebuilt binary for HEAD (we don't do nightly tarballs, etc.), so *you* should know if the executable you're building is optimized or not, shouldn't you? > I don't think anything I was doing was causing images to be > displayed, so there must be crashes elsewhere. As I said, I've been a few on my system, but nothing as serious as "daily crashes", so it'd be *really* helpful to try entering the debugger to see where's Emacs crashing. Thanks, /L/e/k/t/u
