Quick update:
- I did update all mingw tools to the latest versions:
binutils-2.18.50-20080109.tar.gz
gcc-core-4.2.1-sjlj-2.tar.gz
gdb-6.7.50.20071127-mingw.tar.bz2
mingw-runtime-3.14.tar.gz
mingw-utils-0.3.tar.gz
mingw32-make-3.81-2.tar.gz
w32api-3.11.tar.gz
- I removed all cygwin directories from PATH
The side effect of this now is:
Using C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe as shell.
- I did not change anything about antivirus, because I get the same
problems on 2 systems which have different antivirus software
installed
The result of those changes is that I now see the same problem as other
people in this group, which is
make[2]: Entering directory
`C:/Users/deyke/emacs-build/subdir/work/admin/unidata'
"../../src/oo-spd/i386/emacs.exe" -Q --multibyte -batch -f batch-byte-compile
unidata-gen.el
Cannot open load file: encoded-kb
make[2]: *** [unidata-gen.elc] Error -1
Instead of trying to get my setup to work, may I ask what setups other
people are using which do work?
Thanks,
