Subject: Emacs 24.4 release candidate 1: "term/w32-win.el" is missing on
 Windows
Date: Sat, 18 Oct 2014 22:55:40 +0800

Platform: Windows 7
Emacs version: Emacs 24.4 release candidate 1

I used the following commands to build and install Emacs 24.4 release candidate 1:
/f/build-emacs/emacs-24.3.94$ CFLAGS='-I/f/build-emacs/libxpm-3.5.8-w32-src/include -I/f/build-emacs/libxpm-3.5.8-w32-src/src' ./configure --prefix=/f/myemacs-24.3.94
/f/build-emacs/emacs-24.3.94$ make
/f/build-emacs/emacs-24.3.94$ make install

When it is finished, I run emacs -Q
However, a message box is poped up saying:
====================Emacs Abort Dialog ======================
The Emacs Windows initialization file "term/w32-win.el" could not be found in your Emacs installation.  Emacs checked the following directories for this file:

("f:/myemacs-24.3.94/site-lisp" "F:/myemacs-24.3.94/../site-lisp" "F:/myemacs-24.3.94/lisp" "F:/myemacs-24.3.94/leim")

When Emacs cannot find this file, it usually means that it was not installed properly, or its distribution file was not unpacked properly.
See the README.W32 file in the top-level Emacs directory for more information.
=======================================================

Actually, w32-win.el EXISTS in my system, but it under F:\myemacs-24.3.94\share\emacs\24.3.94\lisp\term\
