Subject: compiling emacs using cygwin

Hi,
My problem is that M-x agrep
M-x fgrep and all other greps produce the message as
> symbol's value as variable is void: grep-null-device
A google search told me that this was because emacs was badly installed.
I am using the win32 patch, the source of which seems to be included in
the \nt directory of cvs release.
So I thought that doing a build would be as easy as building ruby.
I was very much wrong. 3 hours later.
I do cd /nt
./configure.bat
make bootstrap
it chugs away nicely for 3 minutes and then we get the error as follows
