I believe now that I have something that is reasonable to test. It should work with both current Emacs and CVS Emacs. There have been some requests to make the installer able to build Emacs from CVS repository. I have not included that, but I have instead written a guide for how to build Emacs from CVS. There is also a tool to check the setup for building Emacs. (You may think that it is unnecessary with such a guide, but I have not yet seen instructions that are entirely correct.) Go to http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/WThirtyTwoInstallationKit to get more info. - Lennart
