I'm trying to install Emacs 18.50 on a Suprenum MPR, which runs Sys V
Rel 3.1, which I'm not very familiar with.  I'm using 'make' from the
main directory to build it.  Things work reasonably well until temacs
tries to update the version number:

	./temacs -batch -l inc-vers

I get:

	*** Termination code 139

This seems to be a message produced by make, not temacs.  I've never
seen anything like it before, and I can't find any documentation as to
what make is reporting.  Presumably something strange is happening
inside temacs, causing it to either terminate itself or causing the
system to terminate it, and returning this peculiar signal (?) to
make.

Note that this version of make still gives the normal message

	*** Error code 1

when cc reports errors, etc., so "Termination code" is something new
and different from "Error code".

Does anybody have any idea what's going on?
