Otherwise lisp/abbrev.elc would have already been created. The top-level Makefile will not try to create ../etc/DOC before that happens. Are you in fact doing a `make bootstrap' when you got the above messages? If not, can you please try doing that. One thing to try is running `make extraclean; ./configure <...whatever...>; make bootstrap'. If the same thing happens, please send a few more lines (say 50) at the end of the build. General help requests like this one are probably more suitable for the USENET newsgroup gnu.emacs.help than emacs-devel. Andrew.
