Dear Emacs Pretest Bug list,

I am building emacs from CVS source.  I most recently ran CVS Update at
April 3rd 2003, 23:30 GMT.  

As recommended in INSTALL-CVS, I ran "configure", then "make
bootstrap".  (I have tried this twice.)  I get this output from "make":

  nice make -w
  make: Entering directory `/spare/src/Emacs21/emacs-CVS'
  [...]
  make[1]: Entering directory `/spare/src/Emacs21/emacs-CVS/src'
  cd ../lwlib/; make -w CC='gcc' CFLAGS='-std=gnu9x -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64

"C_SWITCH_SYSTEM=-D_BSD_SOURCE"

  make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'.

  make[1]: *** No rule to make target

Stop.
  make[1]: Leaving directory `/spare/src/Emacs21/emacs-CVS/src'
  make: *** [src] Error 2
  make: Leaving directory `/spare/src/Emacs21/emacs-CVS'

  Compilation exited abnormally with code 2 at Thu Apr  3 15:42:16

In src/Makefile, I find the following dependency:

   ${etc}DOC: ${libsrc}make-docfile ${obj} ${shortlisp} ${SOME_MACHINE_LISP}

and map-ynp.elc is listed among the files in ${shortlisp}.

I've tried byte-compiling the files by hand with my older version of
Emacs (21.3.50.3 of 2002-06-22, from CVS source)
but that doesn't work either, since it doesn't like the escape
character syntax in international/characters.el:

   ;; For indentation calculation.
   (define-category ?\s
     "This character counts as a space for indentation purposes.")

which gets the error:

  In toplevel form
  /usr/src/Emacs21/emacs-CVS/lisp/international/characters.el:85:1:
   error: error (("Invalid escape character syntax"))
