view etc/ulimit.hack @ 26112:a2591ab1ddaf

(dontcompilefiles): Obsoleted. (DONTCOMPILE): Added emacs-lisp/cl-specs.el. (EL): Unused. (temacs): Removed (unused). (cus-load.el, finder-inf.el, loaddefs.el): New targets to build a dummy version of the file (necessary for the update to work properly). (autoloads): Force the use of `pwd`/loaddefs.el. (updates); Redefined in terms of other targets to reduce redundancy. (.el.elc): New default rule, just in case you want it. (compile): Use a single invocation of Emacs. (bootstrap-compile); Unneeded. (autoloads-with-other-emacs): Unneeded now that autoloads is fixed.

# ulimit.hack: Create an intermediate program for use in
# between kernel initialization and init startup.
# This is needed on a 3b system if the standard CDLIMIT is
# so small that the dumped Emacs file cannot be written.
# This program causes everyone to get a bigger CDLIMIT value
# so that the dumped Emacs can be written out.
#
# Users of V.3.1 and later should not use this; see etc/MACHINES
# and reconfig your kernel's CDLIMIT parameter instead.
#
# Caveat: Heaven help you if you screw this up.  This puts
# a new program in as /etc/init, which then execs the real init.
