I am learning how to build Emacs on WindowsXP and have encountered the following error when trying to build the most recent master branch / trunk:

The first problem I had was with `./autogen.sh`, which was fixed by running:

dos2unix configure.ac

Then, I configured with just the basic:

./configure --prefix=/c/docume~1/lawlist/desktop/trunk

Everything appeared to be going well and I though I was near the end of the `make` process, but then I received the following error:

***

Any ideas on how to get passed this next hurdle would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Keith
