Yes, the `chown` error messages were displayed during the "make install"
portion of the building process. The suggestion of installing coreutils
resolved the issue -- I ran the following command line to install `chown.exe`
and other utilities:
mingw-get install msys-coreutils
And, as Martin noted, the default settings for installing `git` do not work
with Emacs. I re-installed git -- selecting "checkout as-is, commit as-is" as
suggested by Eli and that resolved the line-ending issues with `configure.ac`
and the *.info files such as `elisp.info`.
I now have a working bare-bones installation of Emacs built from the current
master branch.
Thank you both very much for your help -- greatly appreciated!
