On what OS?  (Please always tell that, since the configury and build
setups are different on some systems.)

The bug that I fixed was specific to MS-Windows.  I don't think it
existed on other systems.

You will see that Dan also changed src/Makefile.in:

    2005-11-03  Dan Nicolaescu  <address@hidden>

            * Makefile.in (lisp, shortlisp): Add emacs-lisp/syntax.elc,
            font-lock.elc and jit-lock.elc.

But he didn't make a similar change in lib-src/makefile.w32-in, which
is where etc/DOC is produced by the MS-Windows build.  This is what
caused the bug.

I've added the files from this list that are loaded on MS-Windows to
the list of files mentioned in lib-src/makefile.w32-in from which
etc/DOC is generated.  I think they should also be added to
SOME_MACHINE_LISP in src/Makefile.in, but I didn't do that.

Not for me, not on MS-Windows.
