Hi, 

I'm using emacs-w3m with xemacs on solaris and have exactly the same
problem. I've tried to set `w3m-process-connection-type' both to nil 
and to t but asynchronous exec still doesn't work.

I have another question to you. As emacs-w3m don't have (or at least 
I didn't find) TODO file, I wanted to ask what additional features
you plan to implement?

For example, w3m support cookies and frames. Emacs-w3m can read
cookies that were set by w3m but cannot set them and emacs-w3m
does not support frames. Do you plan to implement these features?
Is this possible to implement them in emacs-w3m?

Sometimes ago I saw w3m extension that supports images. Maybe
this could be used to make emacs-w3m image placement better.
