Summary:                    Emacs start hangs and dies after upgrade since last
month
Description: 
CSW Emacs was working fine on my Solaris 10/x86 workstation last month. I
recently did a pkg-get upgrade, required to get new openssl lib for another
program, and now emacs doesn\'t work anymore.
When I launch it, it hangs for ~30s and then dies with this error
message:
Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size
Truss doesn\'t reveal anything obvious. 
I\'m not sure how to find more information about the problem, but would be
happy to debug it on anyone\'s instructions.

I'm afraid it's not an issue with my config. I still get the same error
with -q option (aka --no-init-file): Variable binding depth exceeds
max-specpdl-size

Also, I'm only showing v22.1 as the latest available through unstable:

# /opt/csw/bin/pkgutil -c emacs
--2009-08-24 10:32:06-- 
http://blastwave.network.com/csw/unstable/i386/5.10/catalog
package                   installed                 catalog
CSWemacs                  22.1                      SAME

Please advise.
