MD5 (/usr/pkg/bin/emacs) = 0216e50f5148bfecfd05d9043c521eaf

I can confirm the debug build fails too, although I can't actually get 
it running in GDB. Every time I issue a "run" to gdb I get a "ptrace: No 
such proccess." I can succesfully backtrace emacs though. (Assuming we 
determine I am not using the old binary). Can you confirm if the MD5 sum 
matches the newer build?

Sorry on the delay on getting around to this. I had some real life 
constraints that kept getting in the way of sitting down with the 
Jornada. Thanks for all your help so far.
