Subject: 24.3.90; can't start emacs - Odd length text property list
Date: Thu, 25 Sep 2014 18:39:48 +0200

I just built trunk r117948 on mingw. I can't start emacs, it reports:
Odd length text property list
I can't make a report from this version as it is not starting, even with
-Q. I managed to run r117941.

Attaching stack trace below.

Agreed.

I could try, but my understanding is that they are not interested on
doing that, for multiple reasons. One of them is that, in theory, you
could use the MinGW-w64 compiler with the MinGW headers and libraries.

__x86_64__ is about the processor. It is also defined by gcc 4.8.2 on my
Kubuntu x86_64. Of course, being MinGW on x86_64 implies Windows 64. But
I've seen quite a few patch submissions about ARM support on the
MinGW-w64 ml, so an hypothetical Emacs compiled for Windows ARM 64bits
by MinGW would fail the __x86_64__ test. If that Emacs comes to light,
we probably would need to determine what's the right thing wrt
ALIGN_STACK, though.

So in this specific case __x86_64__ does not harm, but it is superfluous
on the presence on _WIN64.
