Hello,

Thank you for your feedback. Sorry for the delay in answering.

So...

Actually, this $foo$ instead of foo$ does not seem to prevent building. 
What really prevents building is the mixture of Unix and Dos end of line 
in the makefile produced by configure.bat.

Replacing `$foo$' by `foo$' does not solve the issue which I am in.

In the attachment I have put this makefile, as you can see there is a 
mixture of DOS and Unix style EOL. When I build with `makefile' the 
build fails very soon. Now I edited `makefile' into 
`makefile.woextractrlm' to remove all extra CTRL-M and I tried to build 
with `-f makefile.woextractrlm' option.

It went quite further, but still it failed for a similar problem, in the 
file uni-bidi.el the Local Variable section has some CTRL-M at end of 
line, and this cause a load error. I included in the attached file a 
file temp.el examplifying the problem.

Maybe configure.bat could be fixed by testing if sed is present on the 
machine, and by filtering all the problematic files
by some `sed s/\r$//g'  command.

I am wondering whether the issue with Local Variable is a bug by itself ?

Regards,
   Vincent.
