This must be an alpha problem, I have built Emacs several times on i386 over the weekend. Now I *would* like to know why we have ports for Emacs 19 and 20, and why the "emacs" port is of 19.34, which dates from August 1996. Can't we at least change the name to something less confusing, if anybody really cares about this old stuff?
