+* Make targets
+
+  The following make targets may be used by users building the source
+  distribution, or users who have checked out of CVS after
+  an initial bootstrapping.
+
+  make
+  Builds Emacs from the available sources and pre-compiled lisp files.
+
+  make install
+  Installs programs to the bin directory, and runs addpm to create
+  Start Menu icons.
+
+  make clean
+  Removes object and executable files produced by the build process in
+  the current configuration.  After make clean, you can rebuild with
+  the same configuration using make.
+
+  make distclean
+  In addition to the files removed by make clean, this also removes
+  Makefiles and other generated files to get back to the state of a
+  freshly unpacked source distribution. Note that this will not remove
+  installed files, or the results of builds performed with different
+  compiler or optimization options than the current configuration.
+  After make distclean, it is necessary to run configure.bat followed
+  by make to rebuild.
+
+  make cleanall
+  Removes object and executable files that may have been created by
+  previous builds with different configure options, in addition to
+  the files produced by the current configuration.
+
+  make realclean
+  Removes the installed files in the bin subdirectory in addition to
+  the files removed by make cleanall.
+
+
+  The following targets are intended only for users who have checked out
+  of CVS.
+
+  make bootstrap
+  Creates a temporary emacs binary with lisp source files and
+  uses it to compile the lisp files.  Once the lisp files are built,
+  emacs is redumped with the compiled lisp.
+
+  make recompile
+  Recompiles any changed lisp files after a cvs update.  This saves
+  doing a full bootstrap after every update.  If this or a subsequent
+  make fail, you probably need to perform a full bootstrap, though
+  running this target multiple times may eventually sort out the
+  interdependencies.
+
+  make maintainer-clean
+  Removes everything that can be recreated, including compiled lisp
+  files, to get back to the state of a fresh CVS checkout.  After make
+  maintainer-clean, it is necessary to run configure.bat and make
+  bootstrap to rebuild.  Occasionally it may be necessary to run this
+  target after a cvs update.
