Re: Failure to build on OpenBSD macppc

[Alfred M. Szmidt]

   I deleted all the forms in files.el and it still crashes, with the
   uninformative backtrace:

       Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
       0x00000000 in ?? ()
       (gdb) #0  0x00000000 in ?? ()
       #1  0x00000000 in ?? ()

   I wrote on the list that ./temacs --help also crashes, which you
   said was probably unrelated, and I believe that others here said it
   does that for them too, on other platforms.

--help crashes because init_obarray() hasn't been called, which in
turn means that Vobarray is NULL.  Since Vobarray is NULL, emacs will
segfault when doing intern("emacs-version") at
emacs.c:bug_reporting_address().

I'll try to debug this, thanks to Ryan for giving me access to the
machine where this goes belly up.
