CVS does not bootstrap

[Robert J. Chassell]

Sucess!  CVS now bootstraps.

After updating to
    Today's CVS snapshot, Mon, 2004 Mar 29  20:38 UTC
    GNU Emacs 21.3.50.4 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.2.4)
with a completely fresh checkout

I am able to build and run Emacs using

    ./configure --with-type1 --with-x-toolkit=gtk --with-pop \
    --prefix=/usr/local --with-sound=yes \
    && time make bootstrap

Also, after making a completely new checkout, not containing any of my
old CVS sources, I gradually added my old variations including, most
importantly, Mile's patch to xfaces.c.  Emacs continued to build
successfully.  (I was needlessly worried that the old patches I used
made a difference.)

This message is written and sent using this new instance of Emacs,
with Mile's patch applied, so I can actually read that this is the
*mail* buffer.

Thank you!
