Well, Emacs on Mac OS 9 as it is available on MacEmacs page crash if the mac
has more than 256MB installed.

Huh ?? I fear not to understand that comment :/

I use no Japanese nor Cyrillic fonts, so i won't be able to debug enough.
I have looked at the Japanese Carbon Emacs and it explains it is a patched
one for input method. Maybe the source codes could be compared ? Mine is
directly checked out from CVS. The «modified by Debian» mention only
concerns the version string and the generated packages on my GNU/Linux
Debian box at home.

Is it /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp or
/path_to_the_bundle.app/Contents/Resources/site-lisp ? I am not sure of the
behavior of the bundled app for the load-path.

In my installation, i have defined a ~/.elisp/ where i put the packages I
installed myself, so i did not remarked such problems.

No problem. However if you might found some bugs, you could tell them to the
emacs-devel list or better gnu.emacs.bug ?
I make quite no development myself for emacs (except some minor elisp patch)
but I just compile it to have a «cutting edge» version :)
