It seems slightly dubious for INSTALL.CVS to assume those things, but in practice they're probably often true. Note that I also recommend recompiling the lisp files _before_ compiling emacs, as sometimes lisp changes can affect the emacs build, but again that requires a pre-existing emacs binary. I don't understand why INSTALL.CVS says to re-run ./configure though -- that seems almost never necessary (as the Makefile will do so automatically). -Miles -- My spirit felt washed. With blood.
