That's because no one have seen such a problem, I think.

I will try.

Is there a file named "d:/soft/emacs/etc/DOC" at that point of the
bootstrap process?

I think this bug has been reported before. Consult the following link
for more information:

I meant that no Emacs developer have seen such a problem on his/her
machine. For me, for example, bootstrap works on MS-Windows without
any problem at all. As Stefan pointed out, the failure is strange,
since compilation should work even without DOC. It's hard to debug
this without a reliable way of reproducing the failure.

I suppose you have the documentation for nmake. So read it and find out
what these return codes mean!
During making Emacs the DOC file is first deleted, then some output is
redirected into the new DOC file.
Could you check what permissions DOC and etc have? What are the
permissions for url/vc-dav.el and url/vc-dav.elc and the url directory?
Can you byte-compile url/vc-dav.el with another Emacs of the same
version?
Ahemm, can you find out what the string
"D:\soft\emacs\lisp/../bin/emacs.exe" means in Windows? Notice the use
of \ and / !

That's not a problem: Windows filesystem understands both styles of
slashes.

i built the emacs of CVS on winxp with nmake.
I don't use Windows (it is non-free and therefore immoral), so I can't
help debug this. (I expect that those who try to support Emacs on
Windows will try to debug this.) But I do ave one point to make.
In hacker terminology, calling something a "win" is a form of praise.
If you wish to praise Microsoft Windows, you're free to do so; but if you
don't, then you might want to think twice about using the term "win95".

So it should be called "lose95".
