Not only is it in another directory, it is also not expanded by cpp, unlike src/Makefile, and thus does not end up in a single line. Which means your code will not work at all with lib-src/makefile on w32. In fact, if we ever switch away from producing src/Makefile by running cpp, this new code will break on Posix platforms as well. What I had in mind for working around possible limitations of command-line length was to run "make -C ../src echolisp > FILE" and then read that FILE inside batch-update-autoloads. The w32 code could then create FILE in 2 chunks, using its $(lisp1) and $(lisp2) variables; the rest of the code in batch-update-autoloads could then work on both Posix and Windows.
