A call to find-file calls hack-project-variables which calls project-find-settings-file which tries to search for the file from the root (C: for me). It keeps looping on "C:\.dir-settings.el". I saw that in a call to stat. I just created an empty .dir-settings.el under the "C:" and the build is going on fine (with my earlier path to fix the compilation error - that needs to be made MSVC specific as it works with GCC/MinGW). I will try to find the real cause for this looping once I am done with the build. -dhruva On Tue, May 20, 2008 at 11:40 AM, dhruva wrote: > Hi, > I tried doing a 'nmake bootstrap' and notice and infinite recursion > (or loop) in garbage collection.
