After running

make distclean
./configure --with-ns       (on Mac OS X),
make

I get

Please try again with `make bootstrap'.

Lots of stale .elc files.

Removed from trunk 2010-09-13. Presumably you have stale .elc file
still referring to it.

That fixes things. I'm sorry - I had assumed make distclean would
remove all of the .elc files, but clearly it didn't.

Thank you!

.elc files are supplied precompiled in the distribution tarfiles, and
so are not removed by distclean.

BTW, if you want to avoid bootstrapping, errors like the above can
often/sometimes be solved by "trying harder".  I.e.

   make -k
   make
   
where the "-k" forces "make" to keep compiling subsequent files,
which will often result in eliminating the source of the problem, so the
subsequent "make" then can finish successfully.
