Unfortunately the latest CVS does not build for me:

$ ./configure --with-ns && make
...
Compiling /Users/gdr/emacs-cvs/emacs/lisp/url/url-dav.el

In toplevel form:
url/url-dav.el:36:1:Error: Cannot open doc string file "/Applications/ 
Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/etc/DOC-23.1.50.1"
make[1]: *** [/Users/gdr/emacs-cvs/emacs/lisp/url/url-dav.elc] Error 1
make: *** [lisp] Error 2

(I don't know why it's looking in /Applications/Emacs.app for the doc  
string file instead of in the local build tree where it exists.)
