Bootstrapping apparently fails to compile Lisp files.

Bootstrapping apparently fails to compile Lisp files.

[Luc Teirlinck]

Is the following a bizarre local problem or does anybody else see
this?  Update your CVS.  Then I did:

make maintainer-clean
./configure --without-toolkit-scroll-bars
make bootstrap

Result:

Compiling /home/teirllm/emacscvsdir/emacs/lisp/./x-dnd.el

Your tree does not include the compiled Lisp files.
You need to do `make bootstrap' to build Emacs.
Emacs now requires Texinfo version 4.2.

Bootstrapping _claims_ it has compiled a huge number Lisp files, but it
did not compile one single one.

[bash2.05b.0 ~ 3 1] info --version
info (GNU texinfo) 4.8

Sincerely,

Luc.

I have the same problem (on Debian GNU/Linux).

The problem was introduced by this change:

2005-03-06  Richard M. Stallman  <rms@gnu.org>

	* keyboard.c (Ftop_level): Let Fthrow deal with UNBLOCK_INPUT.

	* eval.c (unwind_to_catch): Use UNBLOCK_INPUT_TO.
	(Feval, Ffuncall): Use CHECK_CONS_LIST.

	* lisp.h (CHECK_CONS_LIST): New macro (two definitions).

	* blockinput.h (UNBLOCK_INPUT_TO): New macro.
	(TOTALLY_UNBLOCK_INPUT): Handle a pending signal if any.

Specifically, by the use of UNBLOCK_INPUT_TO in eval.c.

Lute.

Should work again now.

It does.  Thanks.
