[net.emacs] Help needed with installing GNU 17.

wombat@ccvaxa.UUCP (03/19/86)

I for one appreciate Doug Gwyn's contribution of alloca. I would like to be
able to take advantage of it and get GNUmacs running on the Gould machines,
but haven't had enough large chunks of time lately. (Maybe now that I'm
dropping one of my classes ....) At any rate, this is the m-gould.h someone
here constructed:
