Subject: Problem with emacs 19.34


When I try to run emacs 19.34 on my machine at home. I get
following:

Exiting due to signal SIGSEGV

when I run it on a 100MHz Cyrix 486 machine at work, emacs 19.34
works.

Work machine:

100MHz Cyrix 486 machine with 16Mbyte RAM (I think in 1 bank).  MSDOS
6.22.

Home machine:

Intel 486 100MHz overdrive processor on a 33MHz Opti chipset board,
20Mbyte RAM, 16 in 1 bank, 4 in other bank.  MSDOS 6.22.

I have tried everything I can think of, including running at home with
the config.sys and autoexec.bat from work, so DOS drivers and TSRs do
not appear to be the problem.  I haven't yet tried putting the
original 33MHz processor back pain

I have been scanning comp.os.msdos.djgpp for some time (possibly with
some gaps) to see if anyone else is posting this problem.
