After a little time spent to organize what I've seen thus far:

==========================================================

- Fink build, for X11 (version 21.3.50, CVS 2004/11/17)

current CVS): to be built locally

	<http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/darwinports/dports/editors/emacs/

- There used to be a WebDAV server with some DarwinPorts builds,  
including Carbon Emacs, but I can't remember the URL for the life of  
me.

There are certainly omissions and inconsistencies. After all, I'm not  
really an Emacs user myself! The above is rather to provide a starting  
point in case others want to build upon it.

Also, some builds provide a self-contained application package and  
others don't (i.e. they put stuff inside /usr/local or /opt/local),  
some provide a relocatable application and others don't (i.e. they  
require the application to live in /Applications or  
/Applications/DarwinPorts): I did not do any systematic testing.

On a side note, with the help of Juan's instructions I've finally  
managed to build today Carbon Emacs (not self-contained, not  
relocatable) using DarwinPorts with no fuss.

Cheers,

Bruno
