EMACSLOADPATH="/usr/local/src/apps/editors/emacs/xemacs-20.0-b91/src/../lisp/prim"   ./temacs -batch -l loadup.el dump

crash with temacs. is a malloc thingy. here is backtrace:
#0  0x81a37fa in malloc (size=4096) at gmalloc.c:647
647           while (_heapinfo[block].free.size < blocks)
#0  0x81a37fa in malloc (size=4096) at gmalloc.c:647
#1  0x81a36ea in malloc (size=20) at gmalloc.c:613
#2  0x804fbdd in xmalloc (size=20) at alloc.c:371
#3  0x8088092 in sort_args (argc=5, argv=0xbffff370) at emacs.c:1555
#4  0x8087747 in main_1 (argc=5, argv=0xbffff370, envp=0xbffff388)
    at emacs.c:469
#5  0x8088780 in main (argc=5, argv=0xbffff370, envp=0xbffff388)
    at emacs.c:1775
#6  0x804ef0b in _start ()

--use-system-malloc fixes the problem.  Still have the gcl (bye)
crash.  Will repeat the info if you'd like.
