[eliz@gnu.org: Re: loaddefs.el has no effect]

[Richard M. Stallman]

I don't know when Eli will have time to fix this, but I think this is
an important problem and we should fix it soon.  Can someone fix it now,
and ack to me?

Okay, thanks for the explanations.  I see the reason now:
bootstrap-emacs is copied to bin/emacs.exe and remains there even
after the final binary is produced.  I will fix that when I have time.

I think I fixed this.  Could people who build Emacs on MS-Windows
please try bootstrapping, and verify that (1) bootstrap still works,
and (2) after "make bootstrap" finishes, there's no emacs.exe in the
`bin' subdirectory of the tree root directory (i.e., you must do a
"make install" to get bin/emacs.exe)?

It works.

There's no emacs.exe in bin/ after "make bootstrap".

There's an emacs.exe in bin/ after "make install".

Thanks for testing (and for reporting the problem in the first place).
