They caused mingw32-make.exe bootstrap to fail with the following error if cmd.exe
was being used as the shell:
"process_begin: CreateProcess((null), echo., ...) failed."
I replaced the "@echo." lines in nt\makefile.w32-in with "@echo ." This writes a .
to the screen but that is far more desirable than make bootstrap failing.
I replaced the "echo. ..." line in lisp\makefile.w32-in with "echo ;;; ...". This
writes an extra comment line to loaddefs.el. Again this is far more desirable than
make bootstrap failing.
NOTE: I am using cmd.exe as my shell when building Emacs with MinGW instead of
the sh.exe that comes with msys because when I use sh.exe as my shell, loaddefs.el
does not get properly generated and I get various auto load errors.
Tweak arch tagging to make build/install-in-place less annoying
Previously, autoconf-created Makefiles and the like would contain
duplicate taglines (unfortunately, autoconf doesn't seem to have a
`strip in generated file' comment mechanism) leading to conflicts, and
installing in place would create unknown directories and copies of
source directories (leading to conflicts with the source directories).
This changeset makes all autoconf-processed files use explicit id-tags
and adds .arch-inventory entries to ignore installation directories.

reply2.xpm, which were created by the MH-E package, were left in mail
since they can probably be used by other mail packages.
* makefile.w32-in (WINS): Added mh-e.
* makefile.nt (WINS): Added mh-e.
using appropriate rule for build environment.
(loaddefs.el-SH, loaddefs.el-CMD): New targets. Include small set
of autoloads and defvars, sufficient to dump bootstrap emacs.
(update-subdirs-SH): Use hard-coded list of top-level lisp
subdirs, because find program on Windows is not compatible with
Unix find.
(compile-CMD, compile-SH): Use `batch-byte-compile-if-not-done'.
Explicitly load loaddefs.el so that bootstrap emacs can compile
properly.
(bootstrap-clean): Add dependency on loaddefs.el, to ensure
minimal stub sufficient for dumping bootstrap emacs is available.
Use `compile-always'.
(bootstrap): Use `compile', not `compile-files'. Use `update-subdirs'.
(compile): Renamed from `compile-files'.
(compile-CMD, compile-SH): Renamed from `compile-files-*'.
(DONTCOMPILE): Add various language files.
(DONTCOMPILE): Remove term/xterm.el.
(finder-inf.el): Remove.
(update-authors): New target.
(TAGS-LISP): Remove $(lispsource).
(compile-always): Renamed from `compile-files'.
(compile): New target, adapted from `compile-files'.
(compile-calc): New target.
(recompile): Change `.' to $(lisp).
(bootstrap): Add update-subdirs and finder-data
to dependencies; change compile-files to compile.
. instead of absolute path for lisp dir, to avoid bug in W2K
cmd.exe's handling of FOR loops.
(autoloads): Set find-file-suppress-same-file-warnings to t to
avoid slew of spurious messages.
