Re: Emacs 23.4 released

[Christoph Scholtes]

Chong,

On Windows, Emacs 23.4 crashes during dumping with return code 
-1073741819 (0xC0000005, Access Violation).

The 23.3.90 built fine, but unfortunately I didn't get to build the 23.4 
RC1, which crashes also. I just did a test build. I apologize for that.

Eli,
any pointers on how to troubleshoot this would be appreciated.

"../nt/oo-spd/i386/addsection" "oo-spd/i386/temacs.bin" 
"oo-spd/i386/temacs.exe"
 EMHEAP 21
Dumping from oo-spd/i386/temacs.bin
          to oo-spd/i386/temacs.exe
"./oo-spd/i386/temacs.exe" -batch -l loadup dump
mingw32-make[1]: *** [oo-spd/i386/emacs.exe] Error -1073741819

Using C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe as shell.

After cancelling the crash dialog it goes on to

"./oo-spd/i386/temacs.exe" -batch -l loadup dump
mingw32-make[1]: *** [oo-spd/i386/emacs.exe] Error -1073741819

`D:/devel/emacs/pretest/23.4rc1/emacs-23.4/sr

mingw32-make: *** [all-other-dirs-gmake] Error 2

and crashes again.

Thanks,
Christoph
