The same error occurs on an SGI (IRIX 6.5) with the same make version and gcc version. EMACS 23.3.1 compiled and runs fine on both platforms There is no Emacs 23. Do you mean 21.3? This is very strange, since the source code of Emacs itself is identical in those two versions. The only difference is in movemail, and building Emacs does not run movemail. Can you compare the source files, and see if there is any other unexpected difference between 21.3 and 21.4? When did you compile Emacs 21.3? Did you try it recently? Attached is the Linux config.log I think you mean the GNU/Linux config.log. I can't afford to study the whole log hoping to see a discrepancy. That would take hours, which I don't have. However, if you make a log from 21.3, and send me that log, I can compare them two. Perhaps I will see a difference that would provide a starting clue. Can you please try debugging the crash?
