Subject:	Emacs 19.34 crash on startup -- odd problem

I'm experiencing an odd problem with Emacs 19.34.

After I upgraded may motherboard to an AMD486DX4-SE w/16 Mbytes RAM,
when I start emacs I get a segment violation (with a traceback) just after
the screen starts to show the emacs "window".

Now the oddities (if any [just one of them is enough]) of:

        I set TMP=3D instead of the ramdrive;
        I set EMACSTEST to nul or to a file to recover a session;
        I redir -o emacs.log;
        I run bash first and after emacs;
        I run emacs from windows 3.1;

emacs starts and works superb!

Notice I enabled testing of memory in the HIMEM.SYS, so bad memory chips
sound less probable.

I'm using cwsdpmi ver 3 (under DOS of course).

TIA

Below my config files.

GO32 RESULTS:

go32/v2 version 2.0 built Aug 12 1996 22:27:23
Usage: go32 coff-image [args]
Rename this to go32.exe only if you need a go32 that can run v2 binaries as
 well as v1 binaries (old makefiles).  Put ahead of the old go32 in your=
 PATH
 but do not delete your old go32 - leave it in the PATH after this one.
Set GO32_V2_DEBUG=3Dy in the environment to get verbose output.
