You probably removed emacs 19 but the line is still present in /etc/suid.conf.
Edit /etc/suid.conf, find the line and delete it. Then run 'suidregister' as
root and
you shouldn't get any errors anymore. One more elegant way of doing it would be
to
run 'suidunregister' .

Is there a safety manner to transfer /usr to /usr/local?
