This is probably pretty trivial, but I haven't found any trace of a FAQ file,
and I'm new to fiddling with make files, etc:
I followed the instructions with GNU Emacs 18.55 to build it by modifying the
Makefile supplied, but get the following error, which isn't covered in the
PROBLEMS file.
This is being done on a DECStation 3100, running Worksystem 2.1 (I'm not sure
which version of Ultrix that means we have, but I think it's 3.1).

% make
cd etc; make all
cd src; make all
make -f xmakefile all
cc -c -O -Demacs crt0.c

Any help appreciated, either here or via e-mail.

The fix was simple: read the /etc/MACHINES file carefully :-). The relavent line for the DECStations is: Pmax, Mips from DEC (m-pmax.h; s-bsd4-3.h) in case anyone was wondering. -- Phil Etheridge (phil@waikato.ac.nz) /\ /\ -+-,--, .--, ._ Computer Services/Mathematics & Statistics / \/ \ / /--< /-- / University of Waikato, Hamilton, NZ. / \/ /__.) \_ /
