I get an error when compiling Emacs 21.3 on Windows 2000, using
Mingw's gcc.exe and mingw32-make.exe (renamed to make.exe):
"./../bin/emacs.exe" -batch --no-init-file --no-site-file --multibyte
-l autoloa
d \
--eval "(setq find-file-hook nil \
find-file-suppress-same-file-warnings t \
generated-autoload-file \
\"C:/home/emacs/lisp/loaddefs.el\")" \
-f batch-update-autoloads "C:/home/emacs/lisp"
Wrote c:/home/emacs/lisp/C;c:home.macslisploaddefs.el
Loading vc-cvs (source)...
Wrote c:/home/emacs/lisp/C;c:home?macslisploaddefs.el
Autoloads file c:/home/emacs/lisp/C;c:home.macslisploaddefs.el does
not exist
make: *** [all] Error -1
The problem seems to be that either emacs.exe or cmd (the Windows
command shell) munges the ":" character, even when it is enclosed by
quotation marks. If I edit the Makefile by hand to eliminate the
colon, i.e.,
\"./loaddefs.el\")" \
then the compilation succeeds. However, I haven't figured out whether
this is a bug in the Makefile or my system setup. The problem also
exists for the current CVS sources.
Anyone seen this before? Thanks.
