I ftp'ed the latest version of gnu.emacs from MIT, and tried to
install it on a Sun-ipc. But it was unsuccesful !Here is what I did :
I copied "config.h-dist" to "config.h" and changed the machine
definition to "m-sparc.h" and os to "s-sunos4.h". I am using 'SunWiev' 
not an X-window. Then I ran 'make', it completed fine. Then I executed
`build-install'. Everything worked fine. No errors so far. But when it 
came to run it, it didn't work. It comes back to me with the message
"Fatal error (6).abort". 

 I appretiate any help on this problem. Thanks in advance.
