I've now managed to get GNU Emacs 23.1.1 work again on Mac OS.  BTW, 
Aquamacs 1.9 is still based on GNU Emacs 22.3.1, so it also suffers from 
problem #300.

My general impression is that PG-4 prefers Emacs 23, but this usually 
requires to upgrade to newer Linux installations, which is apt to cause 
other problems, as we have seen.
