Solved the problem with emacs flaking out. The default values for $HOME and $home set up in the default .login file were wrong. Commented out the lines that set them and hardcoded the correct location. Pretty irritating that this emacs (21.2-13) can't deal with this though. I've never had this problem with any emacs I've used before. Should be able to say ^x^w and correct the pathname rather than being unable to continue working and unable to do anything to save one's work. Is one of the other options more robust?
