@aalinovi  Kinoshita-san and I meant that we suspect you've set
the variable `w3m-init-file' in the Emacs init file incorrectly
like:

(setq w3m-init-file "~/.w3m/config")

Otherwise you might have the line something like

tabstop 8

in the emacs-w3m init file, of which the default value is
"~/.emacs-w3m" (or "~/.emacs-w3m.el").  That file is interpreted
when starting emacs-w3m by Emacs assuming it contains Emacs Lisp
directives, like (setq foo "bar").  So, such a w3m's directive,
not emacs-w3m's, causes an error.  Note that loading that file
takes place when not only starting but also compiling emacs-w3m.
