editors/jed 0.99.19 freezing

[andrew clarke]

Hi,

After upgrading to the latest version of Jed from ports, Jed is now
freezing when run from sh with the -c option:

$ sh -c jed

loading /usr/local/lib/jed/lib/emacs.sl

I had to open another terminal and kill -9 the process.

$ jed --version
jed version: 0.99.19/Unix
 Compiled with GNU C 4.2
S-Lang version: 2.2.2

jed compile-time options:
 +LINE_ATTRIBUTES +BUFFER_LOCAL_VARS +SAVE_NARROW +TTY_MENUS
 +EMACS_LOCKING +MULTICLICK +SUBPROCESSES +DFA_SYNTAX +ABBREVS
 +COLOR_COLUMNS +LINE_MARKS -GPM_MOUSE +IMPORT

Using JED_ROOT=/usr/local/lib/jed

$ uname -a
FreeBSD blizzard.phoenix 7.2-RELEASE-p4 FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p4 #0: Fri Oct  2 12:21:39 UTC 2009
 root at i386-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

Downgrading to jed-0.99.18_3 (but with libslang2-2.2.2 still
installed) and the fault goes away.

Thanks,

Regards
Andrew
