26 I dont know, would it? Can anybody see why xemacs would run just fine
27 when I am in the process of compiling something else, but when I am not
28 compiling anything it segfaults immediately.

30 I did try to run strace on xemacs, and although I dont have the results at
31 hand to cut and paste, the segfault was happening after a bunch of stat
32 calls that were looking for default.{elc,el,} but when I am compiling
33 something nothing happens here other than ENOENT.
