[comp.emacs] Compiling GNU emacs

mike@turing.unm.edu.UUCP (09/12/87)

I recently finish bringing up GNU CC and also got the diffs for several 
versions of emacs to bring mine up to date.  I figured I would use GCC
to compile emacs.  But it says, when compiling xterm.c, 
 "cc.1 died on fatal signal 4"

Pcc can compile this fine.

I looked this up, and it is the same trap abort(3) generates.  Further, the
GCC manual says that on some machine architectures, the compiler will 
abort because it doesn't know about a particular combination of features.

But I am on a Vax.  I thought it worked for the Vax.  Has anyone else had
a similar problem?
