Weird, but so did I today. I can no longer repeat the
conditions that caused me to enter this "minor build bug".
Sorry for all the noise.

OK, here is a build attempt with very recent Cygwin tools
(make 3.80, gcc 3.4.4, bash 3.00.16(11),etc.:

------------------------------------------
Knowing that I've never built an Emacs (usable in a
standalone manner) with Cygwin tools, I switch to a pure
Windoze build (Windoze shell, nmake, VC7 or something...):
-------------------------------------------
D:\Martins\emacs-21.4\nt>configure.bat
Checking for 'cp'...
'cp' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
You need 'cp' (the Unix file copy program) to build Emacs.
-------------------------------------------------
OK, so I need "cp". Having Cygwin installed, of course
I add a path to Cygwin's cp. And today it then builds
fine. Previously it didn't. Sorry, can't repeat it anymore.

Well, I'm all set for now, but I may try it next time, if
there ever is a next time for a Windoze Emacs for me.

That one is OK if I also use X, not too comfortable in a shell,
and generally a standalone Emacs for Windoze feels better.
Well, thanks for all your help. Sorry I can't now reproduce
the problem anymore. I even tried mixed builds thinking
that maybe some lack of "make clean" caused this situation
to become possible. But I can't repeat it at all, while
previously I couldn't get out of it (w/o moving the tree).
