I have problem installing GNU Emacs (the test dist-18.56, which I
got around 5th of October):
build-install
=============
gives me the following error messages:
cc -g -Demacs -D_BSD -c hftctl.c
217 | sav_alrm = signal( 14, hft_alrm ) ;/* prepare to
catch time out
.........a........................................................
a - 1506-152: (W) Operands are pointers to different types.
*/
and it fails on the finaly stage of building Emacs:

Dumping data as file ../etc/EMACS-DATA
and no xemacs file is made!
a) any clue to the first complaint?
b) any clue to why xemacs is not made?
c) where is the termcap file on this machine, and does
emacs expect it to be called /etc/termcap?
The beginning of the /etc/EMACS-DATA follows below:

erminal type "%s" is not powerful enough to run Emacs.
It lacks the ability to position the cursor.
If that is not the actual type of terminal you have,
use the C-shell command `setenv TERM ...' to specify the correct
type.
It may be necessary to do `unsetenv TERMCAP' as well.

Killing some buffers may delay running out of memory.
However, certainly by the time you receive the 95% warning,
you should clean up, kill this Emacs, and start a new one.
