Emacs in CVS as today does not build - emacs depends on *.elc, which cannot be built without emacs

[Thorbjørn Ravn Andersen]

Tried to play with the latest Emacs for OS X as the one supplied from 
Apple has short comings.

I could not build it, and apparently the stock emacs 21.1.1 in OS X does 
not know some of the new things needed to build.

The problem is that emacs depends on {etc}DOC (or so), which in turn 
depends on the compiled lisp files, which in turn depends on emacs to 
compile them.

Is there a quick work around to get emacs up and running?
