CVS emacs on Mac OS X doesn't compile

CVS emacs on Mac OS X doesn't compile

[Ulrich Hobelmann]

I downloaded the CVS version twice today (just to make sure) from 
Savannah, configured (./configure --enable-carbon-app --without-x) and 
did a "make bootstrap" which invariably results in the following:

[...]
Compiling /Users/ulli/emacs/lisp/progmodes/cc-vars.el
Compiling /Users/ulli/emacs/lisp/subr.el
(cd src; make  mostlyclean)
rm -f temacs prefix-args core *.core \#* *.o libXMenu11.a liblw.a
rm -f ../etc/DOC
rm -f bootstrap-emacs
rm -f buildobj.lst
make  all
Your tree does not include the compiled Lisp files.
You need to do `make bootstrap' to build Emacs.
Emacs now requires Texinfo version 4.2.
make[1]: *** [maybe_bootstrap] Error 1
make: *** [bootstrap-build] Error 2

It looks like the make bootstrap doesn't really install the compiled 
elisp files where it should and gives me that ironic "please run make 
bootstrap" message.

My texinfo (makeinfo --version) is 4.6, so it should work.

Regards, Ulrich

Please try again after updating from CVS.

According to the guy who wrote the patches allowing a Carbon build of
Emacs, the "configure" syntax is:

./configure --with-carbon --without-x

Hope this helps!
