Hi all,
I believe there will be no further patches to the 21.4 branch,
therefore I'm offering no fixes, only reporting two problems I came
across.
I am using Mac OS X, but that's only revenant to 2), I think.
1) M-x gnuserv-start fails silently. In my case, it was because it
couldn't find the hostname in /etc/hosts. Running gnuserv in a
terminal displayed the error message I needed to fix the problem.
Workaround: Make sure hostname is present it /etc/hosts.
2) For some reason the emodule loader is broken on OS X 10.10.3. I
have zero interest in wading through the autohell to figure out why
it's broken.
Workaround: Manually #define HAVE_DYLD and change the source code
(generated file) to use -bundle -undefined dynamic_lookup instead of
-shared to link the .ell file.
That's all folks. Have fun.
