Re: abort in `make-frame'

   Does this fix it?

Yes.  In the meantime, an alternative patch has been checked in:

2004-07-21  Jan Djrv  <address@hidden>

            * widget.c (EmacsFrameDestroy): Don't abort if normal_gc
              is 0.

This also fixes the immediate problem (by simply removing the call to
`abort'),  but if I understood Jan's message correctly, causes some
other problems.  So I guess your patch is superior.  I tested that it
works by reverting to Rev1.70 of widget.c (that is, the one just
before Jan's patch).

Sincerely,

Luc.
