Once I do that, how do I get an "xbacktrace"? [Note that my only programming experience on a mac is porting multi-tty] If I remember well, when you compile, an Emacs.app directory will be created in emacs/mac. In that directory should be a binary called "Emacs". cd emacs/src Run gdb like this: gdb PATH_TO_THE_Emacs_binary when it crashes type "xbacktrace" at the gdb prompt.
