Emacs 25.1.90 pretest crash on macOS 10.10 Yosemite |

I run the Mac OS (X) binary distributions built by David Caldwell at
www.emacsformacosx.com, which claim to be pure GNU Emacs. The latest pretest
25.1.90 immediately crashes on OS X 10.10.5 Yosemite.
$ emacs -nw -q
Illegal instruction: 4
I can't really give much more information. 25.1 and all of its protests and
release candidates ran fine, and the released version continues to do so.

It's been over ten weeks with no response, so I'm going to close this
bug. If you need further help you can still reply to this, or it might
be worth checking with the Emacs for OS X people to see if there are any
pre-requisites.
