Hi.

I stumble into this problem when building Emacs (when
`bootstrap-emacs' is run for the first time from `lisp/'):

	Cannot open load file: cl-macs

I think I tracked it down.  This (might) be because the
loop that adds subdirectories to load path uses `dolist'
macro, which is defined in `cl-macs.el', which (at the
time the loop is evaluated) is not in the load path.
Phew... ;)

Here is the code that (might) be the cause of the problem
(in `lisp/startup.el', `normal-top-level'):

    ;; Look in each dir in load-path for a subdirs.el file.
    ;; If we find one, load it, which will add the appropriate subdirs
    ;; of that dir into load-path,
    ;; Look for a leim-list.el file too.  Loading it will register
    ;; available input methods.
    (dolist (dir load-path)
      (let ((default-directory dir))
	(load (expand-file-name "subdirs.el") t t t))
      (let ((default-directory dir))
	(load (expand-file-name "leim-list.el") t t t)))

So, here is `make' and `gdb' output that shows the problem.

    I think I tracked it down.  This (might) be because the
    loop that adds subdirectories to load path uses `dolist'
    macro, which is defined in `cl-macs.el', which (at the
    time the loop is evaluated) is not in the load path.
    Phew... ;)

Why doesn't it get the dolist macro from subr.el?
That is what it is supposed to get.

No idea.  In any case I managed to compile Emacs by editing
`EMACSLOADPATH' in `lisp/Makefile'.  After I have installed
the first version, it compiles fine even without that (i.e.
I can run `configure' and then compile).

Before I only had Emacs 21.2 (from Red Hat 8.0 distribution)
installed.  Not sure if this matters.

    No idea.

Can you investigate why not?  Without that, we won't understand the
problem.

      In any case I managed to compile Emacs by editing
    `EMACSLOADPATH' in `lisp/Makefile'.

What precisely was the change you made?

I tried, but I cannot reproduce the problems now.

Patch (reconstructed by memory) is below.  Not sure if it
is useful though, as I don't know under which conditions
the problem occurs.
