RE: X11 apps failing after upgrade

[James Ferguson <jferguson at juniper dot net>]

Thanks for the build, because I couldn't get the build to work.  I
double checked I'd installed everything (Cygwin installer needs command
line option!).  Something to do with autoconf I think:

----
checking build system type... config.sub: missing argument
Try `config.sub --help' for more information.
configure: error: /bin/sh
/usr/src/xorg-server-1.5.3-4/src/xorg-server-1.5.3/config.sub   failed
*** ERROR: configure failed
----

But anyway, when my Emacs fails, it does not trigger the breakpoint.  My
xterm gave me a BadAlloc, but the Solaris patch fixed that.  My GNU
Emacs gives me:

----
  $ emacs
X protocol error: BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter) on protocol request
20
Fatal error (6)Abort (core dumped)
----

This happens almost immediately.  The Emacs call stack is below.  Is
there another breakpoint I should try in the X server?


Thanks,

James.
