The only place I can find it in the CVS is in the nt/gmake.defs file, which should be only used on Windows. Are you building this on Windows? If so, you need to follow the Windows installation instructions in nt/INSTALL, except that you should say "make bootstrap" instead of just "make". > Huh?: "make[1]: *** No rule to make target `mostlyclean'. Stop." Probably because you didn't run nt/configure.bat, and so there's no Makefile in the `src' directory. > Hey, cvs-maintainers, do I *really* have to hack this Makefile, No, you don't. > fix bugs in it?

And if wanted to see all the messages? gmane performs a service where it converts mail lists to news format. Very handy I think. I shouldn't have assumed you'd know about it. I trawled thru its active list but they sometimes change the names of mail groups so I wondered if it were called something else there.
