CANNOT_DUMP used to mean "Emacs cannot be dumped on your system". Now it means "Emacs should not support unexec". This means that current master builds using portable dumper have CANNOT_DUMP set in system-configuration-features. I keep being confused by this (in bug reports). Maybe it makes sense to re-use CANNOT_DUMP from an implementation point of view, but perhaps it should at least not be listed in system-configuration-features any more (replaced by eg PORTABLE_DUMP)? (Or maybe it's just me being confused.) PS Perhaps etc/DEBUG "Running Emacs built with malloc debugging packages" is now outdated in this regard?
