Quick update: - I did update all mingw tools to the latest versions: binutils-2.18.50-20080109.tar.gz gcc-core-4.2.1-sjlj-2.tar.gz gdb-6.7.50.20071127-mingw.tar.bz2 mingw-runtime-3.14.tar.gz mingw-utils-0.3.tar.gz mingw32-make-3.81-2.tar.gz w32api-3.11.tar.gz - I removed all cygwin directories from PATH The side effect of this now is: Using C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe as shell. - I did not change anything about antivirus, because I get the same problems on 2 systems which have different antivirus software installed The result of those changes is that I now see the same problem as other people in this group, which is make[2]: Entering directory `C:/Users/deyke/emacs-build/subdir/work/admin/unidata' "../../src/oo-spd/i386/emacs.exe" -Q --multibyte -batch -f batch-byte-compile unidata-gen.el Cannot open load file: encoded-kb make[2]: *** [unidata-gen.elc] Error -1 Instead of trying to get my setup to work, may I ask what setups other people are using which do work? Thanks, -- Dieter Deyke A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?
