Please try to determine which commit really breaks the build. A change
in src/w32term.c is unlikely to be the cause; more likely some of the
recent autogen changes by Glenn.

Sadly, it's a heisenbug.  Simply re-running the very same "make
bootstrap" immediately afterward fixed it, and I have a new valid
binary.

With that kind of state change, I'm pretty sure I can't bisect.  But
*something* broke building between yesterday and today.
