That certainly looks suspect, well spotted. I guess
"c:/c/emacs/trunk/lisp/loaddefs.el" is the value of
`generated-autoload-file' which is set a few lines up:

[...] --eval '(setq generated-autoload-file (expand-file-name
"/c/emacs/trunk/lisp/loaddefs.el"))' [...]

I think that's probably a bug (mixing MSYS- and native-style paths), but if
I had used a relative path to invoke the configure script, it would have
been a benign bug. I'll reconfigure using a relative path and try again.
