Thanks, that was the missing link.

I attach below a patch to install Windows batch files for the
appropriate targets.  (It is a binary attachment because the batch
files must have DOS-style CR-LF end-of-line format, or else some
Windows shells will refuse to run them.)

Unfortunately, I couldn't test the patches, because Automake 1.12 and
Autoconf 2.69 are required, whereas I have 1.11.6 and 2.65
respectively, and I cannot upgrade because I need these versions for
Emacs.  If you could send me the modified configury files produced by
Automake and Autoconf, I could then test them here.

Thanks.
