Thank you for this information.

As I have understood it from this list, the problem is with a library 
call that exists solely for Emacs to be able to unexec, which is to 
avoid a lengthy elisp initialization at each startup.

Is this still so complicated that it is almost impossible to do 
"manually" by dumping and restoring the contents of the elisp engine 
similar to what  TeX does?
