Having upgraded a Gnu-Emacs from 18.52 to 18.54 through 18.53 on
an Apollo DN3500 SR10.1/BSD4.3 I have encountered some problems.
First of all: for some reason it is now possible to run a inferior
shell (Fine).
I have some problems with the etc/server.c which I'm looking into now.
Latter more if I succeed.
Problem 1:
in 18.53 the change in src/sysdep.c which was adding:
+ #ifdef TIOCSTART
+ if (!flow_control) ioctl (0, TIOCSTART, 0);
+ #endif
resulted in as segmentation fault. Changing it into:
+ #ifndef APOLLO /* Don't know why int zero=0; ioctl (&zero,...) works */
+ #ifdef TIOCSTART
+ if (!flow_control) ioctl (0, TIOCSTART, 0);
+ #endif
+ #endif
made it work, not very surprising. As I didn't understand why the work-around
ran ok I left it out.
Problem 2:
was the change in src/malloc.c in 18.54:
The way the change was introduced made at least my BSD4.3 machine try
to include <sys/vlimit> which does not exist on my machine.
My work-around was to return it original shape; as long as I do not
understand I'll not make any changes.
My Emacs is is plain Emacs only utilizing Leonard N. Zubkoff's
src/unexecapollo.c.
Works quite nice.
Could you please connect my to other users running plain Emacs under
SR10.1 ? I would really appreciate some contacts.
