John, this isn't a build problem.  This is a problem that is triggered
by something specific to Drew's use patterns of Emacs, and/or his
system setup.  Given the long history of these irreproducible crashes
(which I suspect are mostly assertion violations, thus they don't
happen in a release), I'm quite sure there's something truly unique in
how Drew uses Emacs or sets it (and the support utilities) up, because
no one has ever succeeded in reproducing anything even close, as far
as the frequency of the crashes is concerned.
