Thanks.

So this is bug#11634, 11769, 11668 again.

I really don't know why your Emacs cannot find its own files.
We already established that EMACSLOADPATH is empty, and you are not
passing --enable-locallisppath to configure.

Anyone?


Semi-related comments:

1) Should the failure to find simple.el in command-line now be a fatal
error, since Emacs is going to go on to abort due to failure to find
required bidi data files?

2) Please can we have a more useful emacs_abort (), one that takes a
string describing the error as argument and prints it to stderr before
aborting.
