We try to compile emacs 19-19 for NetBSD-0.9 with the following
call of configure:
./configure i386-386bsd --with-x11 --run-in-place
Everything looks fine, until we try to start emacs which generates
the following error message:
emacs can not execute binary file
But temacs is running. Who can help?
The executable Emacs dumps is in the wrong format unless you
specifically add the `-Z' flag to the `ld' command in xmakefile. I
have submitted patches to the Emacs maintainers to fix this and a few
other things, and to automatically detect that you are running NetBSD
in configure, but they have not been put in the distribution yet.
These patches are as of Emacs 19.17. I've seen too many serious bug
reports for 19.19 to want to compile it myself. B-)
