Hi,
today I updated all packages of my 32-Bit Cygwin installation (installed
on top of Windows 7). After that xemacs crashed if I tried to open a
file. Therefore I reinstalled the older version xemacs-21.4.23.1.
Unfortunately the older version crashes as well. I can start xemacs
without command line arguments.
hermes x 3 xemacs &
[1] 4908
hermes x 4
It crashes if I try to open a file with <Ctrl-x><Ctrl-f> or if I start
xemacs with a filename as command line argument.
hermes x 4
Fatal error (11).
Your files have been auto-saved.
Use `M-x recover-session' to recover them.
Your version of XEmacs was distributed with a PROBLEMS file that may describe
your crash, and with luck a workaround. Please check it first, but do report
the crash anyway. Please report this bug by invoking M-x report-emacs-bug,
or by selecting `Send Bug Report' from the Help menu. If necessary, send
ordinary email to `xemacs-b...@xemacs.org'. *MAKE SURE* to include the XEmacs
configuration from M-x describe-installation, or equivalently the file
Installation in the top of the build tree.
*Please* try *hard* to obtain a C stack backtrace; without it, we are unlikely
to be able to analyze the problem. Locate the core file produced as a result
of this crash (often called `core' or `core.<process-id>', and located in
the directory in which you started XEmacs or your home directory), and type
gdb /usr/bin/xemacs core
then type `where' at the debugger prompt. No GDB on your system? You may
have DBX, or XDB, or SDB. (Ask your system administrator if you need help.)
If no core file was produced, enable them (often with `ulimit -c unlimited'
in case of future recurrance of the crash.

[1] Segmentation fault xemacs (core dumped)
hermes x 4
I didn't get a core dump but a stackdump.
hermes x 21 cat xemacs-21.4.23.exe.stackdump
Stack trace:

Do you have an idea why I get a segmentation fault or do you know
which package I should replace with an older one to get a working
xemacs once more? Thank you very much for any help in advance.
Kind regards
Siegmar
