But this emacs would say "invalid argument framep 1" at startup. I set debug-on-error to t and run C-x 5 2. The backtrace showed that the error is in `getenv' and it is cause by an env.el change that YOU installed on the multi-tty branch without a ChangeLog. PLEASE REVERT THE CHANGE! It is never a good idea to install changes without testing them, and you obviously didn't.
