Again, I wish that I could be more helpful. You might be able to download a log of the IRC conversations and grep for answers.

The mailing list is fairly lively. You'll probably get a better answer soon. :)

It does! The usual build instructions work fine as long as you have the dependencies. For gccemacs

I recommend the "build from source" instructions at https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GccEmacs#toc2

A little underwhelming to be honest. I thought the speed-up would be more noticeable.

I'm trying to track down the implementation of the function that actually sets the st_uid field. But it

appears to be buried under several indirections and possibly a mig interface. I got lost trying to find

it.
