(At least on Windows) you're right, and it's the only clean fix I can
see.

Trying to build DOC from the .el files does not work because
make-docfile, as expected, just dumps docstrings starting by
backslash-newline, and most docstrings in preloaded .el files aren't so.

Delaying the building of DOC to after bytecompiling lisp/*.el works
right.

The following patch implements that behavior for Windows. As I'm no
expert on the Emacs bootstrapping and building process, I'll delay
checking it in to see if someone points out any problem with it that
I've overlooked.
