I just gave it a try with a compile that is just a couple of hours older than your post, and did not see the SEGV. I use gentoo's ebuild for 23.0.0, and end up with this configure line: ./configure --prefix=/usr --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu \ --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info \ --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib \ --enable-debug --program-suffix=.emacs-23.0.0 --without-carbon \ --with-x --with-xpm --with-toolkit-scroll-bars --enable-font-backend \ --with-freetype --with-xft --with-jpeg --with-tiff --with-gif \ --with-png --with-x-toolkit=athena --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu Which toolkit do you use? I've noticed that using gtk (as emacs' toolkit) often leads to more bugs than the alternatives..... -JimC -- James Cloos OpenPGP: 0xED7DAEA6
