Build Failure 21.3.50

Build Failure 21.3.50

[Dhruva Krishnamurthy]

Hi,
 Building emacs (21.3.5) on W2K with gcc (MinGW32) tools fails.
I have the latest source from the CVS. When I do a "gmake bootstrap",
it fails with the following output (last few lines at error). I also
tried the same with MSVC++ 6.0 and it fails too (Just to make sure).

with regards,

PS: I am still not in a position to help in fixing or providing more
specific bug locations, I am in the process of learning emacs code. The
best I can do is build on a regular basis and test it. I hope to one
day start contributing myself.

i had the same problem.  Andrew Choi told me that: 

This problem will be fixed once someone corrects the loaddefs.el, and
until then, this worked-->

[make bootstrap  (breaks)]
cd lisp/
make autoloads
cd ..
make bootstrap
make install

and out comes emacs 21.3.50.2....
