Bootstrapping apparently fails to compile Lisp files.

[Luc Teirlinck]

Is the following a bizarre local problem or does anybody else see
this?  Update your CVS.  Then I did:

make maintainer-clean
./configure --without-toolkit-scroll-bars
make bootstrap

Result:

Compiling /home/teirllm/emacscvsdir/emacs/lisp/./x-dnd.el
Compiling /home/teirllm/emacscvsdir/emacs/lisp/./xml.el

Your tree does not include the compiled Lisp files.
You need to do `make bootstrap' to build Emacs.
Emacs now requires Texinfo version 4.2.
make[1]: *** [maybe_bootstrap] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/teirllm/emacscvsdir/emacs'
make: *** [bootstrap-build] Error 2

Bootstrapping _claims_ it has compiled a huge number Lisp files, but it
did not compile one single one.
