These started after emacs was rebuilt with mabi=64 to enable handling of subprocesses with enormous process-ids. Unfortunately gdb is not useful as the has overwritten the stack so gdb can't trace it. Does anyone have any idea how to get to the root of this problem? I am a pretester of emacs at another location, but have not heard of this one. So I doubt 21.3 has fixed it. Thanks in advance, -- Andrew Hall (Now reading Usenet in ...)
