Thanks! For what it's worth: "make bootstrap" *SHOULD* work. It works for me here, so I don't know what's the problem at your end, but if/when you figure it out, please send it back here so we can address it. AFAIK, normally removing lisp/loaddefs.el and lisp/eshell/esh-groups.el and then rebuilding loaddefs.el should do the trick, and AFAIK "make bootstrap" does that. Stefan
