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.
(bootstrap-gmake): Extend bootstrap process to first do
bootstrap-clean in lisp dir and rebuild the DOC file.
(bootstrap): Do a "normal" make after the bootstrap work.
Add bootstrap support.
Pass $(MFLAGS) when invoking make recursively.
Add shell-specific variants of top-level targets that invoke make
recursively in other directories, and add necessary computed
dependencies.
