Hi Eli.

Eli> If that was from a running Emacs, then why don't I see what fatal
Eli> signal crashed Emacs?  It is the first thing GDB announces when a
Eli> debugged program crashes.  If you elided that, please post that
Eli> part, it's important.

Eli> Also, did you specify these link switches:

Eli> So where do they come from?  Do you see them in src/Makefile?

Yes. You are Right. Should I remove then?

Eli> Does this mean liblw.a was created in the source directory, not
Eli> in the build directory?

Not sure about this. Because on the same directory where I am packaging
for my distro. I have created a build directory (where I am
testing. according to our discussion).
