This text is used twice (once in `normal-splash-screen' and once
`fancy-splash-screens-1):
Warning Warning!!! Pure space overflow !!!Warning Warning
\(See the node Building Emacs in the Lisp manual for details.)\n
In `command-line-1' we have a similar text:
(display-warning
'initialization
"Building Emacs overflowed pure space. (See the node Pure Storage in the
Lisp manual for details.)"
:warning)

(It's more a minor issue than a problem, but ...)
When updating the text, we might forget one of the three occurrences.
(See above.)
In `normal-splash-screen' and `fancy-splash-screens-1' (one of these
is called from `display-splash-screen'), we simply insert the waring
into the splash screen. Maybe using `display-warning' would make the
warning stand out more clear. E.g. when the user already types
something during initialization, the splash screen isn't displayed:
;; If user typed input during all that work,
;; abort the startup screen. Otherwise, display it now.
(unless (input-pending-p)
(display-splash-screen))))
Maybe the place in `command-line-1' where I added `display-warning' is
not the best choice or we can simplify displaying the pure space
warning in some other way without having it several times in
`startup.el', e.g. using `display-warning' once if `(and
pure-space-overflow (not noninteractive))' is t. I will look into
this in a few days (I don't have the sources here, ATM), unless .
Bye, Reiner.
