Nothing.

I found the cause. It's out of Emacs. Some system wide keymapping
doesn't generate C-M-p key at all...

We actually referred to the same thing.

The binary result of Cocoa port is also Emacs.app. So calling the
nextstep/cocoa port Emacs.app is rather confusing. Maybe a better naming
is Nextstep Emacs, or Cocoa Emacs(not quite appropriate, but help people
understand, i'd say).

If you followed their mailing lists, you must know that I had reported
my failing attempts of either running the pre-compiled binary or
building from sources. And witnessed a similar failing attempt days
ago. No solutions yet.

Unsupported though, it's still runable & pretty stable, unlike Nextstep
Emacs.
