emacs: Fatal malloc_jumpstart() error
Emacs fails with the error
Fatal malloc_jumpstart() error
Black Magic
In a Terminal window type
$ sudo mv /usr/bin/emacs-i386 /usr/bin/emacs-i386.backup $ sudo /usr/libexec/dumpemacs -d $ emacs --version GNU Emacs 22.1.1 ...(Here,
$ is the shell prompt.)
Once youve checked all is OK you can remove the backup
$ sudo rm /usr/bin/emacs-i386.backup
