bug#19057: 24.4; "Fatal Error 10: Bus Error" for Athena and Motif builds on Debian Wheezy mipsel

[Bruno Félix Rezende Ribeiro]

This machine is a Lemote Yeeloong 8101B (Loongson 2F processor --
MIPS64), running Debian Wheezy mipsel port.

When Emacs is configured with the option '--with-x-toolkit' set to
either 'athena' or 'motif', it builds fine, but produces a graphically
useless executable that fails to run on a X11 display showing the
following cryptic error message:

  Fatal error 10: Bus error
  Backtrace:
  ./emacs[0x4ffec4]
  Bus error

Surprisingly, if invoked with the '-nw' option or built with
'--with-x-toolkit' set to 'gtk2', Emacs works perfectly well.

What can it be?  I'm waiting further instructions to debug the problem.

cd to the src directory.
% gdb emacs
(gdb) r -Q

and when it crashes

(gdb) bt full

Also read etc/DEBUG.

More information was requested, but no response was given within a few
months, so I'm closing this bug report.  If the problem still exists,
please reopen this bug report.
