Mac OS X build fails

Mac OS X build fails

[Martin Jourdan]

I am new to using/building Emacs on MacOS X (although I am not new to 
Emacs in general). I just downloaded the latest Emacs sources from the 
CVS repository, using the instructions from 
<http://members.shaw.ca/akochoi-emacs/>, and started to build it on my 
MacOS X 10.2.5.

"make bootstrap" fails with the following messages :

./temacs --batch --load loadup bootstrap
Loading loadup.el (source)...
Using load-path (/Users/martin/Documents/Work/x-install/emacs/lisp

Loading cus-start (source)...
Wrong type argument: integerp, (0 4 3 4)
make[1]: *** [bootstrap-emacs] Error 255
make: *** [bootstrap] Error 2

Any idea on what causes that?

Many thanks in advance.

This doesn't seem to be a Mac OS X specific problem.  Please read
emacs-devel to see when it is fixed.

In the mean time, I built the CVS version on 2003-04-28 and that works
fine.

Indeed, this was also reported by Vinicius Jose Latorre.

Works fine here too, except that I can't (yet :-) get Emacs to 
correctly display Mac-Roman-encoded files (accented letters, etc.) -- I 
am new to MULE and the coding-systems and the fontsets. Where should I 
start to read ?

Thanks in advance.
