without this option, it's ok, but with this, it failed, the message is 
as below.

It is useless to report build failures here, because the Emacs
maintainers don't read this list.

Please report to emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org or to emacs-devel@gnu.org
instead.

ok.
But it's about installing emacs.

Of course.  But this forum is about _using_ Emacs, not about building
and installing it.

Says:

  "This list is the place for users and installers of GNU Emacs to ask
   for help."

Not for CVS versions.

Ronald, please explain things in full sentences and full thoughts.
Include snippets of other posts if your post relies on it for meaning.
Its very difficult to tell what you want.

As Eli pointed out this is not really the list for a discussion of
building.

However I do believe you are often likely to find someone here who has seen
and understood a similar problem and can give guidance.  Most here
understand some aspects of building.

I suspect your problem is something involving your local setup and may
not really be of interest to the high level discussions that occur on
the developer list Eli references.

To find out you will have to post sensible full messages that give a
readable account of what you are seeing and what your environment is like.

On the contrary, they are of _great_ interest, since version 22.1 is
in pretest, so any build failure on any supported platform is subject
to intensive scrutiny.
