make install on existing emacs installation issue: using MinGW

[dhruva]

Hi,
 I had reported a problem in "make install" over an existing
installation using MinGW on W-XP. I had provided a diff, I am
reposting it in contextual format for convinience.

-dky

diff -Nprcw emacs.6b5111f90a96/lisp/makefile.w32-in emacs/lisp/makefile.w32-in

Thank you very much for your report and the patch.

I've seen the first post as well, and will install it soon.  Please be
a bit more patient, I don't always have enough free time to react as
fast as I wish to.

I am not trying to pressurize anyone. I just thought since I had sent
a patch in a non-standard format, it was being ignored. It took
sometime for me to configure (mercurial) to get a contextual diff as
expected in the emacs development list.

with best regards,
dhruva

Oh, and of course apologies for not considering this situation in the
first place, when I worked on the change in lisp/makefile.w32-in.

Done.

Thanks again for your report and the patch.
