As someone who a) isn't the maintainer of emacs21-xaw3d and b) isn't remotely able to fix what is going on. What should I do?

I've installed emacs21 without xaw3d, and that will do for now, I just wanted to bring this to the attention of the developers.

Apparently, the issue pertains to the code in unexdyld.c. Towards the
end of the build process, a raw Emacs with no Lisp code in it is run,
and all the Lisp code gets dynamically loaded into the running image.
Once all the Lisp code has been loaded, the running image examines its
memory area and dumps itself on disk. The error above means that the
dumped image could not be restarted, due to a segmentation fault,
probably. Examining the dumped image with otool -lV would perhaps help
diagnosing what's wrong.
Fatal malloc_jumpstart() error
The error you get when trying a binary install probably means that the
version of the freeze dry code the binary image was built with is not
compatible with the version of freeze dry code you're using. Freeze
drying is the process of replacing a zone's malloc/realloc/free/etc.
routines with dummy routines which make it impossible to perform any
further allocation from this zone. This happens when a dumped image is
restarted.
Andrew Choi maintains another version of the unexec code (unexmacosx.c), which does a better work at dumping Emacs. Most notably, the dumped image is much lighter.
Hope this helps, Aurelien
