Hi,
I am building Emacs on WinXP using MinGW (GCC) and MSVC. The build of
info files in the MSVC build. The makefile has a "cd $srcdir" in which
"srcdir=.". This translates to "cd .". "nmake" (gmake/make used in
MSVC) does not seem to like that. It gives an error and comes out. I
removed that statement (cd $scrdir), everything works file.
I will check the same on pretest tarball and let you know my findings.

Thank you for your report.
However, could you please show us which portion of what makefile has a
"cd $srcdir" in it? I cannot find it anywhere with today's CVS.
Perhaps you've caught a makefile.w32-in during a short period where a
wrong change was installed there a few days ago, before it was
reverted; in that case, please resync and try again.

You are right. I did a CVS update (which I do everyday). I did a
configure once again to generate the makefiles, everything works fine.
Thank you.
with best regards,
