I'm very sorry if I did sound ungreatful. I had a little time
left over to try to make ido grasp UNC file names -- and then
instead of being able to "focus on the task", I suddenly found
myself wound up in W32 crashes and all sorts of build problems.
But I can confirm that Lennarth's unpatched version runs fine.

I believe you. I haven't had time to study them myself -- my
interest is _not_ building Emacs on W32. But if we expect people
to be able to do it, the instructions really need improvement
or at least a pointer to where you can find better instructions
(even if the link is broken later on, the user will know that such
instructions exist, and may search for them).

That pointer should be in nt/INSTALL too.

It seems other are already doing that -- with varying frequency (and stability).
