Has anybody out there ported GNU-Emacs to 3b2/3b5/3b20 machines.
I am having a rough time with it. The address space for 3b's
have the high order bit turned on. GNU-emacs seems to use pointers,
and integers interchangebly, assuming that only the low order
24 bits of the pointer are used.  The XINT macro in xlisp.h
seems to be the one that is causing all the problems.

I do have it paritally working, but it is very flaky.

If anybody has already gone thru fixing these bugs, I would
deeply appreceate getting a copy of GNU-Emacs. 

Thanks in advance

PS.

I have tried using NO_UNION to be defined with an appropriate structure
for the Lisp_Objects. This only seems to make things worse.
