The etc/MACHINES file distributed with GnuEmacs 18.41 states that
GnuEmacs has worked on Plexus machines since version 18.36 or so.
It does not run on the system I have....  temacs core dumps
every time I recompile and test it.  I may be missing something
fairly important, but I have tried to make it work.  It dumps
core in a strcmp.  I believe alloca doesn't work, but I have tried
the C version, the version in libPW.a and a hacked up version
in which I changed the libPW.a version a little.

Any help?  Sure would be appreciated!!!!
