Severity: wishlist
Hello,
Try this experiment from "emacs -Q":
C-x b test RET hello C-x C-s M-n
(That is: create a new buffer, write something in it, try to save it and
use M-n to look for a default filename.)
The first time I try that, I see the error message "Source file
`c:/emacs/trunk/lisp/gnus/auth-source.el' newer than byte-compiled
file". On subsequent attempts, the error message is more normal: "End of
history; no default available".
In any case, what I what to request here is that "M-n", insetead of the
error, brings to the minibuffer a default argument consisting in the
concatenation of the current directory and the name of the buffer.
TIA.

That's your local problem with byte compilation, I don't get that
message on my machine. Just compile auth-source.el, and that message
will not appear anymore.

Have the emacs build process a way of automatically compiling every
*.elc file which is older than its *.el counterpart? (I thought that
the plain "make" took care of this)

Yes.

No. The correct procedure for building on Windows after updating from
bzr is this:
cd nt
configure
make
cd ../lisp
make bzr-update
cd ../nt
make
make info
The 'configure' step can be omitted if none of the configury files
changed (that includes makefile.w32-in files, nt/config.nt, and
nt/configure.bat itself).
Some changes are too invasive, and make the "make bzr-update" stage
fail. If the problems don't go away after re-running that stage
several times, your best bet is a full bootstrap.
