This looks like a bug in emacs, as you say, but I don't know if it
has any particular relation to the posix_memalign() changes.

Apparently it does seem related to posix_memalign() changes.
When I bootstrap Emacs without posix_memalign(), by manually
tweaking src/config.h after configure runs, and #undef
POSIX_MEMALIGN, then it passes the bootstrap stage normally.

Hmm, that's interesting. I'll mess around with emacs later on today (though I only have i386 hardware at the moment). Right now, I'm still building xorg on my machine in order to try to reproduce the gtk problems that Pascal Hofstee reported.

Hi Jason .. In the mean while i decided to do a pkg_delete -a followed by a fresh gnome install from standard ports instead of Joe Marcus Clarke's MC-gnome tree .. and it looks like the main culprit is glib-2.9.2 as the observed GTK-problems do not occur with the glib20 port that is currently in the main ports-tree. So i think it's safe to assume glib-2.9.2 is seriously busted and jemalloc just happened to Really get pissed about it :)

I did encounter a malloc bug that's triggered by Evolution resulting in a runaway process that basically eats up all memory+swap before the kernel shoots it down .. but i am trying to get gnome@ to help me out on that one.

But overall i think it's safe to assume that the gtk-issue i reported earlier is linked to a malloc bug in glib-2.9.2 which is included in the MC-gnome tree.
