Re: New cygwin verson breaks emacs


The problem only occurs when trying to run emacs from xterm.   So only
when X-Windows functions or related GTK functions are needed.

But, since the error message is
" ***MEMORY-ERROR***: emacs[3060]: GSlice: failed to allocate 504
bytes".  I will look further into it.    If anyone has any clues
please let me know.

I would think that the function is "GSlice", but I have no idea what
or where that is.

Have there been any major changes in Xwin and GTK related programs
that might have this affect.


Thanks Henman

Well, *which* function's not implemented?  I'm an emacs ignorant so I
just started emacs moved the cursor a bit and exited again, which works
fine.  So, what's the exact problam?
