I just happen to bump into a problem and searched the web and found the same problem has been reproted before. If some GNU Emacs developers feel offended by the referencing of an old report, I could just describe the problem next time, no more any referencing. But that is a quite strange request, I don't think it's anybody's fault if there's a subtle unsolved bug in a program, because different people has a diverse different system configuration. I'm not a native english speaker, I have to reference the dictionary many times while composing email in english, It's quite an opportunity I pick up a wrong word to express my thought. If some people feel offended, sorry for that. And finally, thanks for your correction of the grammer. > The facts are utterly different from your assertion: out of the 3 > problems reported in that message, 2 are already resolved (albeit in a > way that is different from what was suggested there).

The problem is bootstrap stoped while compliling lisp/url/vc-dav.el, it complains that there's no DOC file in the etc/ directory, so I have to copy the `DOC' file from lib-src/ to etc/ manually and bootstrap again.
