[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

Running `make uninstall' deletes some script files under lib-src
when a corresponding $(DESTDIR)${archlibdir} is not exist, since
the uninstall rule does not check the status of `cd $(DESTDIR)${archlibdir}'.

To reproduce this condition:

  extract or check out the emacs source tree at the machine Emacs is not installed
  or
  update the source tree until `emacs-version' is updated to the one not installed yet

  then

  % ./configure
  % make uninstall


Please apply the attached patch to fix this.
It also avoids `make uninstall' stops when `cd $(DESTDIR)${archlibdir}' fails.

Thank you, applied to the trunk.

You have a few small changes in Emacs now, and should probably
complete a copyright assignment if you expect to send any more. There
is a simple form to fill out - let me know if I should send it to you.
