Brian,

Do you remember the problems of Emacs after rebasing? It needs 
libncurses7 not-rebased.

Only using '-Wl,--enable-auto-image-base' in its build makes it work 
also after the rebasing and, if I remember correctly, no DLL are created 
in its build.

In any case, thanks for the answer.

    Angelo
