This file describes various problems that have been encountered
in compiling, installing and running GNU Emacs.
* Building Emacs with GCC 2.9x fails in the `src' directory.
This may happen if you use a development version of GNU `cpp' from one
of the GCC snapshots between Oct 2000 and Feb 2001, or from a released
version of GCC newer than 2.95.2 which was prepared around those
dates. The preprocessor in those versions expands ".." into ". .",
which breaks relative file names that reference the parent directory.
The solution is to make sure the preprocessor is run with the
`-traditional' option. (The `configure' script does that
automatically.)
Note that this problem does not pertain to the MS-Windows port of
Emacs, since it doesn't use the preprocessor to generate Makefiles.
* Building the MS-Windows port with Cygwin GCC can fail.
Emacs may not build using recent Cygwin builds of GCC, such as Cygwin

the core dump, but will loose X input method support, of course. (You
can use Emacs's own input methods instead, if you install Leim.)
