I tested EMACS_22_BASE, before-merge-multi-tty-to-trunk,
merge-multi-tty-to-trunk, and the latest trunk on
Windows-XP.

The first two have no problem.  merge-multi-tty-to-trunk
can't be build because of compilation error.  The latest
trunk code can be build but, (keyboard-coding-system)
returns nil.

So, I still think that the problem is because of multi-tty
merging.
