I know that it is important that many users build Emacs too, but the 
problem on MS Windows is that most users will not do that. That means 
that there will be fewer testers when we do not supply prebuilt 
binaries. For this reason I have planned to supply more prebuilt 
binaries during the pretest. (They will not be from the tarball, but 
directly from the CVS.) And I will try to make sure that it is just the 
CVS code (+ EmacsW32 + the installer of course).
