No idea.  In any case I managed to compile Emacs by editing
`EMACSLOADPATH' in `lisp/Makefile'.  After I have installed
the first version, it compiles fine even without that (i.e.
I can run `configure' and then compile).

Before I only had Emacs 21.2 (from Red Hat 8.0 distribution)
installed.  Not sure if this matters.
