Looking into it now. > This is related to having /usr/bin/emacs -> zile symlink on x86_64 (does not affect 32bit builds). Bug has aparently been there for a very long time. Workaround is 'EMACS="no" ./configure ...' Not sure how gentoo handles this internally. Suitable for the book, or just blacklist x86_64 Gentoo as a suitable host? I've been using the Gentoo Live DVD for x86 builds for a while now (and I used to use System Rescue CD, which I've seen mentioned a few times), but this was first build on x86_64. Anybody have GNU Zile on some other x86_64 host that can double check this?
