I recently made gnuemacs 18.55 for a Sparc station running Sun OS 4.0.3.
Everything seems to run fine, except for one small problem.  When I
try to open the shell buffer with the M-x shell command, I receive
the following error message:

	Process shell exited abnormally with code 1

The shell window opens fine, but for some reason, no shell process
seems to be able to run.  I took a look at the source code, but I
really couldn't figure out what's going wrong.  Does anybody out
there have any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
