Greetings,
Has anyone managed to build xemacs-21.1.9 with Cygwin-1.1.0 (new net
release)?
I did a full setup of cygwin's "latest" (contents as of yesterday
a.m.) on NT Workstation 4.0 (SP5).
Used it to build & install ncurses-5.0 OOTB. (As Charles Wilson
reports on <http://cygutils.netpedia.net/V1.1/ncurses-5.0/index.html>,
there was an error message but the installation looks complete.)
Then, building xemacs-21.1.9:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/xemacs-21.1.9
make
proceeds happily until here:
...
Loading loadhist.el...
Loading loaddefs.el...
Loading site-load.el...
Bootstrapping from temacs...
Purespace usage: 99772 of 1463000 (7% -- 1331k wasted).
Compiling /home/starksb/src/xemacs-21.1.9/lisp/auto-autoloads.el...
at which point temacs.exe runs indefinitely (well, at least 15 minutes
on a PII-400 w/ 128MB) until killed. Task Manager reports that
temacs.exe uses 8120K, and this does not grow.
There are no other cygwin processes running (just bash), and real-time
anti-virus protection is disabled. CYGWIN is not set and mounts are
binmode (defaults). I even tried cygwin1-20000426.dll, but no change.
I'm inclined to wait for xemacs-21.1.10, due soon I believe, and try
again then. (Unless someone has an idea what to look for, in which
case I'll provide more details, like cygcheck & strace, if that's
thought to be useful here.)
Thanks to both teams for your fine efforts.
Kind regards,
David
