Especially because it's lacking a C compiler, isn't it? ;)

Emacs is great to use, but the C sources are a mess: K&R compatible
(at least they that way), tons of #ifdef's in the actual code, no
clear separation between OS-specific and generic routines, colored
pointers, the undump feature---just to name the most awkward things.
I only tried once to built it on a not-yet supported system (some
bleeding-edge Linux variant), but quickly gave up.
