I think I've figured out where the problem is, anyway. It's in recent revisions to the lisp packages for xemacs.
On my office system with the current version of xemacs (21.5.9-1) and (crucially!) the xemacs-sumo package from 20020919, calls to make label (among other things) crash emacs. My TiBook at home has an earlier version of xemacs, though (21.5-4) and an earlier version of the lisp packages (xemacs-sumo-2002-07), and it works fine. So I tried downgrading xemacs to the earlier version, and I still got crashes. Once I downgraded xemacs-sumo to the earlier version, everything was fine (just like on my TiBook). So I put the current xemacs (21.5.9-1) back: it behaved strangely, but that's attributable to the fact that the dumped executable was built with the later lisp code, and I now had the earlier code in the libraries. So I rebuilt 21.5.9-1 using the lisp code in xemacs-sumo-20020720, and everything now works. I you want to use reftex and friends, you should re-install xemacs-sumo-20020720.tar.gz, and THEN rebuild xemacs (21.5.9-1). You may have trouble finding the older version of xemacs-sumo if you don't have it lying around from an earlier install (as I didn't, in the office), you can find it at ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/Attic/packages/xemacs-sumo-2002-07-20.tar.gz -- Stephen R.
