[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

On netbsd 9.3, the following configure options will let gmake build to completion.

  > ./configure --without-all --without-x --without-compress-install --localstatedir=/var --disable-autodepend --prefix=/path/to/emacs-29.0.92 --build=x86_64--netbsd --host=x86_64--netbsd --enable-option-checking=yes --without-pop --without-mailutils 'CFLAGS=-O2 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -I/usr/include' 'CPPFLAGS=-DTERMINFO -I/usr/include' 'LDFLAGS=-L/usr/lib -Wl,-R/usr/lib -Wl,-R/usr/pkg/lib'

The following steps in the build process fail after unpacking the source distribution files.

Thanks, installed on the master branch, and closing the bug.

Thanks, I used it with a few minor changes.
