I do, daily :) But still I use cvs-update quite often.

Hm. I would've said that the whole point of cvs-update is to be more
correct than recompile; else, why not simply use recompile, which is
faster?

Just out of curiosity: in what kind of hardware? On a 3GHz Pentium 4,
it takes less than half an hour for me, from `make maintainer-clean'
to installation (though I cut some time by always doing an in-place
installation). That with MinGW's gcc; when I used Visual C it was even
faster.

Aha.

Yes. I'm more interested in the question of whether nt makefile's
recompile should call lisp makefile's cvs-update, or perhaps recompile
+ updates.
