emacs, the final chapter -- I hope

[David MacQueen]

Are the irix3.3 patches for gnu emacs available by ftp anywhere?

We have another application, a Standard ML compiler, that builds
an executable image using a technique similar to that used in gnu
emacs; the sdata, sbss, etc segments are redefined as 0 length segments
at the end of the data segment.  This works for DECstation/Ultrix,
MIPS/riscos, and Irix 3.2, but fails on Irix 3.3, where the data
segment appears to be neither readable nor writeable.  I'd appreciate
any hints about what might be going on.
