That we already do: this is why DOC depends on temacs.exe. Once temacs.exe is rebuilt, "make install" will rebuild DOC. But you seemed to say that this arrangement causes us to lag one step, and I don't understand why. > The correct fix would seem to be to move building the DOC file from > lib-src/Makefile.w32-in to src/Makefile.w32-in like it is in the main > build, and build it after temacs.exe but before emacs.exe is dumped. Yes, but that's a non-trivial change that I'd rather not do before the release, especially since there's no actual problem we need to solve.
