Yes.

Yes. There's also another problem: the "compile-files" target was
renamed to "compile", but there's already a compile target in
Makefile.w32-in. With that bug, compiling Emacs tried to backup the .elc files,
which would fail if you didn't happen to have tar, for example.

I've commited a patch that reverts some of the changes by Andrew that
affect the MSVC/nmake build. With the patch, I can bootstrap and compile
without problem on a W2K.
