Hello all,

        I have been fighting XEmacs on the alphas for the past week
and cannot get it to work reliably.

        So far I have compiled it with both gcc 2.7.2 and DEC's own
cc on OSF/1 3.2c. The problems I am seeing do not exist on Suns
running SunOS 4.1.3_U1 and Irix.

Problems:

o speed: slow as hell, cannot keep up with typing,
o Some elisp byte-compiles incorrectly,
o Some elisp is actually _evaluated_ incorrectly (char-equal)

None of this happens under SunOS. I have the 3.2c patch for 19.13.

I was also looking for the XEmacs pages for DEC but have lost the
address.

Any suggestions/pointers will be welcome.

Thanks,

        Arrigo
