4.04: GNU Emacs

A prebuilt installp (smit) installable package is available from
<http://www-frec.bull.com/>.

If you get a segmentation fault in GNU EMACS 19.* during hilit19 use,
you can set locale to C (export LC_ALL=C) to get around the AIX bug.

Version 18.57 of GNU Emacs started to have RS/6000 support.  Use
s-aix3-2.h for AIX 3.2. Emacs is going through rapid changes recently.
Current release is 19.x.

Emacs will core-dump if it is stripped, so don't strip when you install
it.  You can edit a copy of the Makefile in src replacing all 'install -s' 
with /usr/ucb/install.
