On Windows XP I'm currently getting


c:\emacs\trunk\nt>c:/Programme/MinGW/msys/1.0/bin/bash.exe --login -i -c  "cd 
/c/emacs/trunk/ ; make"
c:/Programme/MinGW/msys/1.0/bin/bash.exe --login -i -c  "cd /c/emacs/trunk/ ; rm -f 
src/emacs-*.exe"
c:/Programme/MinGW/msys/1.0/bin/bash.exe --login -i -c  "cd /c/emacs/trunk/ ; 
make"
cd . && aclocal -I m4
cd . && autoconf
configure.ac:70: error: possibly undefined macro: AS_ECHO
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.

What do I have to do?
