I've an odd problem building the emacs 22.1 binary without X11 support. The compiling works without any problems. But in a late stage of the build process the new emacs binary is called in batch mode to compile some of the lisp files of the distribution. There the process hangs.
I checked the new binary. It ever hangs and uses 100%CPU when started. I've tried to debug it with gdb without success: % gdb emacs GNU gdb 6.5.50.20060706-cvs (cygwin-special) Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
