GNU Emacs trouble ...

[Binod K. Taterway]

I am trying to compile GNU Emacs on a SPARC 1+  under SunOS 4.1. There is
no  problem with compilation  and the software compiles without any error
messages. When I  install GNU Emacs  and execute it, I get Abort (6)
error, and the program dumps core. I noticed  that  by default the
"sticky"  bit is set   on  emacs,   i.e.,  the  protection   mode is
'rwxr-xr-t'. Is that the way it is supposed to be? When I playing with
file protection mode, at one  point  I was able  to  run the program
properly (I don't know if I  turned on  setuid or setgid,  or  both),
suggesting   me  to conclude  that there   is nothing wrong  with the
executable. Can any one tell me  how Emacs should  be installed in the bin
directory  (usually /usr/local/bin). The  ones  that  I  got from
prep.ai.mit.edu   does not seem to  install    right, or  am I doing
something wrong?
