Subject: CANNOT_DUMP and portable dumper
Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2019 15:49:20 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <q5h8dr2nqn.fsf@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
CANNOT_DUMP used to mean "Emacs cannot be dumped on your system".
Now it means "Emacs should not support unexec".
This means that current master builds using portable dumper have
CANNOT_DUMP set in system-configuration-features.
I keep being confused by this (in bug reports).
Maybe it makes sense to re-use CANNOT_DUMP from an implementation point
of view, but perhaps it should at least not be listed in
system-configuration-features any more (replaced by eg PORTABLE_DUMP)?
(Or maybe it's just me being confused.)
PS Perhaps etc/DEBUG "Running Emacs built with malloc debugging
packages" is now outdated in this regard?
