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.

if trying with the unstable release of 23.1 the same issue is observed, I
recommend to use the -q option for a start test.
