hi - i just rebuilt my emacs 18.55 on my decstation-3100 to preload
some more lisp files. Now, I get ``bad address'' messages when I
execute xemacs from a TTY (works from an X display). It actually
changes based on the termcap type I'm using. H19 is fine, vt100 causes
it to barf on a free() in the termcap library, claiming that a
previously freeded item is being freed again.

I suspect that part of the problems might be the unexec; for example,
from a single load, ``xemacs'' didn't work but ``emacs-18.55.19'' did,
although they were allegedly the same file.

Has anyone seen something similar on the DS3100 & found a fix?
